Nice basement studio a block from the beach and two blocks from the Santa Monica pier. Great communication with the host, pet friendly, nice bed, kitchenette, and bathroom. We were a few blocks walk from the lively downtown scene with many food options which was really nice. My only complaints are that the parking was not the best. Even though a parking pass is given and only cars with the pass are allowed there were still other cars taking up the spots. I did not feel comfortable leaving my car further away. Also, the property is listed as having a washer/dryer and it did not. Felt very safe though, and clean. Exactly what we needed after being out in the sun all day. Having the kitchenette to warm up leftovers, or have a glass a wine with the wine glasses provided was really nice!!
