Liz and her pup, Albee, were wonderful! They made me feel right at home. Liz gave me a tour of the place and showed me how to use everything. She was so warm and friendly which made me feel safe especially visiting Santa Monica for the first time. I will definitely be back! If you need somewhere to stay with a great location (walking distance to the beach and restaurants) and with a fantastic host, this is the place! Can’t wait to come back!!
