This was a great spot to stay in while visiting Santa Monica. It was a bit of a walk to the beach but I like walking so it wasn't a big deal. If you have a car or want to take transit it would be super simple. The space was private and perfect for just myself. I liked having my own suite, but felt secure in the back area of their house in a quiet residential area. I barely say Katja and her family as I was out most the day. Check in was easy (as was check out). A little fridge in the room was perfect so I could keep a few groceries for breakfast. Wifi was great.
I would highly recommend this place!
