Absolutely loved staying here. The pictures are accurate and the space is quite large with plenty of natural light in every room. The space was very clean and well kept with a well stocked kitchen, although we ended up doing no cooking here since the restaurant district was a 3 minute walk down the hill with places ranging from delicious sandwich deli's to higher end restaurants for a fancier night out. Great bars with excellent happy hours as well! The location was unbeatable - 5 minutes to the water, and the host provided beach towels. I would note that it was important we kept quiet during designated "quiet hours" from 10pm to 8am in case you are younger like myself and enjoy night life. Overall a wonderful experience and I will seek this place out again next time I'm visiting the Santa Monica area.
