This place is great for a weekend getaway! It’s right in the heart of Santa Monica and we had no problems walking anywhere we needed to go. The tips for local restaurants and activities were super helpful. The beach was a beautiful few blocks away, with the added bonus of walking by the Santa Monica community garden on the way. The place was dark and cool, very restful after being in the hot sun. I loved the jacuzzi tub too. Good selection of DVDs, but you might want to bring a Roku stick or Apple device if you want to stream your own services. We didn’t have so much down time that it was a problem. Check in was the easiest I’ve ever had, door was open and waiting for us when we arrived. The studio is tucked back in a courtyard and felt very safe and cozy. The mattress was comfy and no street noise penetrated, very restful. We very much recommend this location and would gladly stay here again.
