Fabulous home-base for a couple days exploring Santa Monica for our family of 4 (2 adults + 2 kids). Bed was very comfortable and the kids slept great on the high quality pull-out couch. Cottage is well-stocked with linens and kitchen equipment. Close drive to the beach and downtown Santa Monica. Quiet neighborhood felt very safe. Flavia and Niall provided excellent directions and coordination for easy check-in/check-out.
