Charlene is a great host. Her place is very clean, has all the amenities you'll want and is a great location for getting to the Strand to walk or to the ocean. Plenty of Keurig coffee selection, a few beers in the frig and some snack candy just to tide you over. Really nice touches. Also an easy walk to downtown Manhattan Beach and even Hermosa Beach if you wish. Very close to LAX - maybe 20 min at low traffic times.
