Blanca's place is excellent. It's exceptionally clean, hospitable, and cozy, and Blanca is a great host! Very inviting environment. They've got a string light setup in the backyard, so sitting outside on the back porch is magical at night. Manhattan beach is only a about a 15 minute drive away which is really nice, especially if you're a beach person like me. There is always street parking either right outside her house on the curb, or very nearby, so you don't have to worry about driving around forever looking for a space. Definitely highly recommended!
