Grant's place is located near the airport and convenient to many places. It's about a 15-20 minute drive to the beach (I like Marina del Rey). It is located on a quiet cut-de-sac but the unit faces a 4 lane street - it wasn't a big problem but the traffic could get loud and I closed that window at night since I'm a light sleeper. The other 2 windows provided a nice breeze. Communication was great - Grant always responded quickly and was very helpful. He does ask that you take your shoes off at the bottom of the stairs which is understandable - I would bring slippers since I don't like to walk barefoot. Great value.
