Had a wonderful time staying at Silvia's place! Location was absolutely amazing- within walking distance to the beach, Bixby Park & Harvest Farmer's Market, local coffee, bars, restaurants, and great little shops on 4th Street. Parking spot was a massive convenience too, as street parking in the area isn't always easy to find.

The apartment itself was really lovely. Very spacious, and although there were only two of us staying, it could comfortably sleep five, as stated. Clean upon arrival, and well stocked with all necessary kitchen equipment and any toiletries you may have forgotten. Private patio was a nice addition as well, especially at night. I stayed in late September as the SoCal weather wasn't too scorching, so the apartment remained mostly a comfortable temperature. I imagine that it could be quite warm in the summer though, as there is only one portable AC unit in the apartment.

Silvia was easy to reach before and during the stay, and checking in and out of the apartment was incredibly easy. She described everything perfectly, and I had no trouble finding the keys, parking spot, wi-fi, etc. Communication was strong throughout the stay, as she messaged to make sure there were no problems.

Great place overall. Would definitely stay again and recommend to others. Thanks Silvia!
