Amazing. Derek greeted us on arrival as if old friends and gave us a quick tour of the exquisite little guest contemporary in his back yard. The space is well depicted in the airbnb link and sits as a separate guest studio in Derek and Sylvia's back yard. For those lovers of modern design and clean, open space, this is a gem. Comfortable bed, gorgeous lighting, well equipped kitchen, easy parking and tiny, great selection of foreign and English lit left by guests, a really good deal. Occupying the former space of a neighborhood carport/garage, behind a residential house at the end of a modest driveway, the guest studio manages to offer an intimate glimpse of what contemporary architecture can do beautifully, simply and well. When paired with Derek's warm personality and street smarts, an outstanding experience from beginning to end. Relaxing, serene, and very private, about 6-7 minute's drive to the Santa Monica/Venice Beach strand.
