This is a lovely apartment in a fantastic location. The interior decor is fairly basic but it is well equipped and spotlessly clean - the sofa bed in the lounge was very comfortable and there were plenty of bed linens and towels available. Communication with Brad was easy and he responded super quickly to any emails or texts. We were met at check in by Brad's lovely dad, Robert, who lives upstairs. He was incredibly kind and helpful - he found us a nearby parking space, gave us a quick tour of the area, gave us a supermarket discount card, recommended some great restaurants and even gave our boys a box of Lego. The Manhattan Beach location is wonderful - the beach itself is a 3 min walk away and the apartment is located in the heart of all the great shops and restaurants. The area felt really safe. We would highly recommend staying here if you are going to LA and want a beach location.
