Christopher and Margot's home was lovely. Filled with charm and inspiration, it was very cool to live in our own private artist studio surrounded by beautiful, one of a kind works of art. The home was also exceedingly clean! My husband, 8 month old, and I stayed 2 full weeks and a cleaner came half way through which was a nice surprise. Located on a quaint walk street we were walking distance to Abbot Kinney (~10 min) and another 10 minutes to the beach from AK.
Christopher and Margot were also very accommodating. I reached out prior to our trip to ask if I could have a pack and play and high chair sent ahead of time, and as luck would have it, Christopher and Margot let us borrow theirs instead! They also brought by a kids bucket and shovel for the beach. During our trip we found out that due to city ordinance, the AC is locked at 78 degrees. Luckily during the day this wasn't an issue, being close to the beach, the home stays pretty cool with all the windows and doors open. Unfortunately with a new baby, I didn't feel comfortable leaving the windows open at night, so the house didn't get below 74 degrees. We're from Boston where it's VERY hot during the summer, and we're used to keeping our house at 70 degrees at night. Luckily when I brought this up to Christopher and Margot they were nice enough to purchase a fan.
It was great to live like a local for two weeks, and overall it was a great trip! Hope to be back again soon!
