Jeff’s location cannot be beat. It is so close to the beach and the south end of Santa Monica. It’s a quick trip on a scooter or in an Uber/Lyft to most things in Santa Monica, but having the parking permit is also clutch. The place is really best as a crash pad, as there’s not much room inside (this is not unique to California) which worked great since we were out for a wedding and were on the go all day. There is no air conditioning so if you visit in he height of summer or want a constant cold breeze overnight, this may not be the best choice for you. We didn’t sleep great on the bed but think it’s just because we’re used to a firmer mattress, if that’s important to you. But, it’s tops as a budget accommodation!
