Staying at Calvin's was great. Parking was a breeze with the permit he provided. He is located conveniently and is a great resource of knowledge about all the local sites and restaurants.
I was visiting the Matthew Kenney program and touring all the other raw restaurants in the area. Calvin has everything you need in his kitchen set up if you are creating living food while on the road...not always easy to find! We had many great conversations covering everything from raw cuisine to quantum mechanics.
I will stay there again when I return to Santa Monica in the future!
