We booked Adams place at the last minute before we left London Heathrow for LA. We were so grateful he responded immediately and didn't mind our evening arrival. He made us feel welcome and gave us advice for the closest restaurants and where to get groceries. It is within walking distance to Hermosa beach, about 2km. We enjoyed walking in the area but used uber for venturing to further afield. The room is spacious with a bathroom right next door while the host lives upstairs. I would happily stay again.
