We rented a private room at Carrie's property, placed in a detached house in the back of her beautiful garden. The room was small but cosy and very clean, and the bed and linens perfect for a good night's sleep! El Segundo is about 30 km from Down town LA and 15 km from Santa Monica, and for the price it was well worth it! Unfortunately we didn't get to meet Carrie as she was on a trip, but check-in and check-out were flawless. As for the Main Street Cafe in El Segundo that Carrie proposed for breakfast, it was truly delicious! Would be back!
