This was probably the best AirBnB experience I've ever had. As a former Angeleno, I already knew how good the location was -- if you aren't from LA, this is about a perfect an area as you can stay in, a beautiful secluded wealthy neighborhood just off a road filled with coffee shops, boutique shops, and good restaurants and bars, with the beach about a 15 minute walk away and no noise at night. Given how good the location was, and the size of the apartment, for the price I was half-expecting the apartment to be run down or have issues somehow. I could not have been more wrong. The apartment itself was beautiful -- stain glassed windows letting in tons of natural light and a huge "open-space" living room and kitchen. There was filtered water, delicious espresso, a kitchen fully stocked with dishes that were actually nice. The main bedroom king bed was extremely comfortable. And the patio was unreal -- two stories of open air space big enough to invite over a bunch of my friends who live in town for a quiet night sharing drinks while overlooking all of Santa Monica and the ocean. And everything else about the stay just went right. It was so easy to get in, there was always parking available, Sara was an INCREDIBLE communicator before, during, and after our trip. (They literally left hand-written notes on our steps every day just to say hi!!!) It's really hard to describe just how much VALUE I felt that I got staying at this place. It was amazing. 6 stars.
