The apartment was in a great location, walking distance to the beach, Abbot Kinney blvd., and to the marina for kayaking. We were also able to use the supplied bikes to bike to Santa Monica Pier and Playa Del Rey. The apartment was very clean. We didn't have much need to contact Kevin, but he was very prompt with replies. The information supplied before the visit made check-in easy and the binder in the apartment was very informative.
