We had a wonderful stay at Tom's cottage. Our stay was for 9 nights and location is great for visiting the beach, Santa Monica Pier, Venice Beach, Getty Center, Getty Villa, Huntington Library, Nixon Library, Queen Mary, Hollywood Walk of Fame, Tar Pits, Universal Studios, etc, etc. Pictures are accurate. Very quiet except for garbage trucks at 7:30 AM twice a week. Our Nissan Altima was a tight squeeze getting in the garage but nice that parking with electric door opener is included. Kitchen is well equipped. Gelson's grocery store is a five minute walk. We were a little nervous about the neighborhood when we first drove down the alley but after a walk to the store, beach, pier, and meeting some of Tom's neighbors, we quickly realized we were in a clean and safe neighborhood with lots of dog walkers and 30 somethings. A great spot for our list of activities. Across the alley is a barred door painted "Members Only". Don't worry, it's not a strip club, but actually a car repair for classic vehicles. The cottage feels big and was recently updated with modern kitchen, king bed, and lighting. The garage and laundry are downstairs. I'm hooked on Airbnb if they are all as nice as Tom's cottage.
