The place was dirty, from the bathroom where there was a dirty bath, to the kitchen and dirty dishes - there were leftovers in the pan! Bath is so old/dirty/used that it's a really bad experience to take shower there - forget about taking bath! Pictures don't really show the place. The place is in the much worse state compared to the one in the pictures - different furniture, some missing kitchenware. Offer said it is above the pub, but it didn't mention that you basically can't open any window because of the noise from ACs on the roof and smell coming from the kitchens. We also had a bad experience with a leaking ceiling. It was raining and in the middle of the night, celling start to leak! We let know the host about the situation. What was the solution? They put some plastic sheet over the bed and some basket to gather water. We were advised to use another bed. Problem is, that the other bed (in the kitchen) is next to the vent shaft which makes terrible noise so it's impossible to sleep there.
From positives: it is extremely close to the beach. All cool stuff of Santa Monica are in walking distance.
