John is a great guy and he was very accommodating. I was the first guest to stay for a whole week. He honored my requests and provided refrigerator space, cutlery, instant coffee and a microwave so I could eat some meals there and he also lent me one of his laptop computers. He even offered to change my sheets mid-week (unnecessary) and gave me a fresh towel half-way through my stay. Sweet!

Ocean Park, for those who don't know, is a small community in Santa Monica that is quite unique. It's an easy walk to the Santa Monica/Venice beach area but the neighborhood is very quiet and calm, safe and totally unlike most of the rest of LA. This part of Santa Monica feels like a middle class community, with many apartments as well as many single family homes. The architecture and vegetation is quite different from the east coast and mid-west.

John's apartment is super quiet and the bedroom feels private. The bed itself was comfortable and it was tempting to sleep late. The large TV streams Netflix which I watched a couple of times. In addition, I felt comfortable keeping any hours I liked.

Thank you John, for an excellent 7 day vacation!
