This apartment is exactly as pictured. It's small but had everything I need to make use of the AMAZING location. The property manager, Ninfa, is a superstar and was always available for questions via text. The property is completely gated and the patio in the back is a perfectly safe place to store a bicycle. The road outside is busy, but the windows keep all the noise out and the curtains keep all of the city light out.
I liked my month+ stay so much I extended it even longer. This apartment is exactly what I was looking for in Santa Monica.
