Mariann and her family (and their adorable pooch) were the best! Booking was extremely easy and although our arrival time changed slightly throughout the day, they were 100% accommodating.

Mariann has set up a room with everything you might need, and also the most comfortable bed I think I've ever slept in--we almost didn't get out and explore! Their little bungalow is clean and well maintained. Although it is walking distance to Main Street and the beach in Santa Monica, they also have 2 cruiser bikes available to use. If you're not out trying new breakfast spots (we'd recommend checking out Flake) they also serve up a nice little continental breakfast in the morning!

In short, everything that Mariann did made us feel like we were at home. Although our visit was short, we had a wonderful experience and most certainly will be staying again next time we are down in LA!
