This was one of my favorite airbnbs I've ever stayed out. Maria Gabriella's place was SO clean, in the HEART of Santa Monica, right by the beach, and the bed was so ridiculously comfortable. I was always able to reach Maria anytime I needed her, and even during protests/curfews, since I'm from NY, Maria kept me updated on everything going on as I wasn't getting any notifications. She made the stay SO comfortable, homey, and clean. I highly recommend this airbnb should you come to LA and want to be near all the good food / beach. GREAT stay and GREAT hostess.
