The apartment itself is quirky and is a bit dated. There was plenty of space to move about and sprawl or take a quiet nap in one of the rooms we called "Harry Potter's closet." The location is a close walk to the beach/boardwalk or a close drive to Abbott Kinney road (hipsters). An issue I had was the noise from the upstairs occupant (kids running back and forth) and the comfort of the mattresses. Other than that it was a wonderful stay.
