This is one of my best AIRBNB experiences. All the instructions to check in, navigate, and stay were clearly articulated. The space is extremely clean and well maintained. Akiko was super homely and warm in her welcome. I felt like I was staying at home. All supplies and access were abundant and apt. The place is also very easily accessible by public transport (Big Blue Bus route 7 on Pico Bl; close to downtown Santa Monica metro, pier and promenade), and is in a safe area for everyone to navigate at all times of the day. I felt very safe and accommodated for all my needs as a solo female traveler fairly new to the ciry. Would highly recommend to everyone.
