We enjoyed our stay here. Santa Monica area wasn’t my favorite, however, this place was on a very quiet street that felt safe. The kitchen was well stocked and the bathrooms had helpful amenities. I didn’t think the mattresses were very comfortable but that could be personal preference. The host was good at communicating and check in was easy even at a late hour. The walk to the beach took longer than expected. There was a fun shopping area and some food restaurants fairly close by.
