Adorable comfy apt with balcony just a few blocks from the beach and surrounded by yummy coffee and eating places, (including a nearby trader joe) the 3rd st promenade of shops and even walking distance to the metro to downtown LA. We had all we needed to cook simply in the apt and took breakfast and evening drinks and hors doeuvres there ( saves a heap of money). Our hosts Nathan and his dad Vincent were so warm and responsive. We felt like appreciated guests in their home which really enhanced the joy of our four night stay. If you don’t need a large apt, you’ll be so happy to have booked this gem.
