John is an excellent host, very cool, quick to respond and always accommodating —even your very last minute requests. John’s apartment is at the heart of Santa Monica and just a few minutes away from the beautiful Santa Monica Promenade. The location of that place is a real win —for everyone like me and my friend who prefer exploring the city by walking. John’s apartment is located in a residential area, it’s very safe, especially with police patrolling at night. The blue buses are just 3 minutes away from the building. So, if you choose to stay at John’s place, you will for sure have zero problems with commuting. The apartment itself is not huge, just as seen from the pictures. The bedroom was amazing, with snow white and immaculately clean bedsheets. There was a plenty of towels at our disposal, too. We started our mornings with delicious home brewed coffee —courtesy of John’s small but cosy kitchen! That truly made my day!
