Well I'm finding Airbnb to be hit or miss. If you're into a very casual experience and don't mind staying in a actively lived-in apartment, then this place is fine. Especially, if you are not used to a nice tidy place and want to be near to the beach, great Santa Monica dining/bar experience.

It's not for me however, as I am a corporate business traveler and prefer a place that is much tidier and not as un-kept (not interested in bathing in some else's bathroom with their used amenities/soaps/etc). No air conditioning made it too loud for me next to a semi-busy street where you can hear every car pull up to the stop sign just outside the window. The bed and pillow was less comfortable than many I've slept in at Marriott Courtyards.
