This is a great little authentic house in Santa Monica. Owner is very nice and helpful. Place was clean, had all the kitchen amenities you might need. A little patio that's always shaded, great for summer. Inside large fan and open windows cooled down the place and we slept with the ceiling fan.
House is ideal for 2, however, check with host because he was intending to add more sleeping arrangements. When we were there they had an inflatable mattress that wasn't comfortable for my kids. Both rooms have a lot of natural light and have white curtains so you get some morning light too.
Great location, there's a metro station right on the block so you can easily get to Santa Monica pier (it's a 15 minute walk if you prefer), 3rd Street promonade, city museums, Hollywood, Universal Studios and I think that it even reaches LAX, though we haven't tried. Anyway, you don't really need a car if that's where you're headed. It's not the fastest metro but it's nice to avoid the unpredictable LA traffic.
We would definitely love to return.
