Niko was a responsive and welcoming host from the the moment we booked thru the end of our stay. We would recommend his studio as a comfortable spot to rest your head during a relaxing beach vacation. The studio was exactly as expected from the photos; it was very clean, comfortable, and welcoming to its guests. It is tiny, but a nice unique space! There is some closet space to put your luggage/belongings out of the way. The location of the studio is great - close to the beach and a nice walk from the busier side of town.

Our stay was probably atypical. We used the studio as a homebase for apartment hunting, but the location was a great choice - easy drives up to the West Side and down the South Bay!

We also wanted to add that Niko went above and beyond your typical host. Niko knew we were scoping out apartments in the area - he provided us with information and guidance in that regard.

Also, many thanks for welcoming our dog. It's always a challenge to travel with pets, and Niko was very understanding.
