As a first time user of Airbnb i chose Jeff and Shannon because they are Superhosts! I think this is important. You are not surprised as everything is as noted. Great location - Santa Monica - close to all highways, groceries and beach - but you should have a car. SAFE. I'm not from LA and know that big cities can be tough - one block the wrong way and oops! No problems here!
The place is super clean. The beds are super clean and comfortable. The kitchen works for making all meals! What can I say, I'm a convert. Don't know why i would stay at an expensive hotel when you can stay at Chez Jeff and Shannon! Enjoy your experience - you won't have any worries with friends and family.
