The pros: location. Right outside the heart of Santa Monica - close enough for a $10 Uber but far enough to be away from the nightlife noise. Only issue is the street the house is located on was quite noisy.
The guest house looked exactly as it did in the pictures - perfect if you had two people.
There's no AC, which is understandable as you're in a canyon of sorts by the beach , but i would recommend getting a ceiling fan or two.
Furthermore, there's no tv... and also no sound system. I certainly understand not needing a tv on vacation but a simple soundbar would suffice.
The toiletries were top notch, and the bathroom was upgraded. Only issue is getting into the shower as the door is quite wide for a rather small bathroom.
I realize it sounds like I am complaining but I just think those simple improvements could make this place the all time getaway. Host was incredible and you really get a nice guest house for a great rate and in a good area. Would certainly recommend
