We were here for 3 days on a mother-daughter trip. Donna was very hospitable, and her house is very beautiful. Located in a walkable distance to Santa Monica and also has free parking spot next to the house. The bathroom and kitchen are shared, but there was no problem. Donna gave us just enough space while also engaging with us, making us coffee, and also providing extra blankets when my sister fell asleep on the couch. There is a charge to use the washer and dryer ($5), which was not mentioned in the listing, but this is understandable considering the high utility bill in CA. We loved the private porch and backyard area. Thank you again, Donna, for hosting us!
