Joachim was a wonderful host! He did everything possible for me to feel comfortable while staying in his house. He always asked me if I had a good day and if I had any issues he was very accommodating. He is a fun guy who it is easy to talk to. The house is perfectly situated between the beach and Abbott Kinney. It is a 10 min ride with uber (5$) to Santa Monica and depending on traffic 40 min to DTLA with Uber (25$). The room is definitely value for your money and you can feel safe and expect a good stay at Joachims house.
