We stayed in one of the three (apparent) guest houses on the host's property, with a common outdoor patio area which could be used by the guests if advance notice was given (since it's a shared space). We didn't use the area, but it was a really nice space and had it been warmer, I'm sure we would've used it. The unit itself is quite adequate for up to three people. In addition to the comfortable queen sized bed, there was a pull out sofa bed -- which we wanted to use, but couldn't get the linens from the host (after several attempts to contact him via text). The well-stocked kitchenette is nice to have, so we were able to fix breakfast and coffee for ourselves in the morning. The bathroom, while very compact, worked well enough for us. The neighborhood is in an older section of Santa Monica, close to both the 10 and the light-rail station, so downtown L.A. is easily accessible if guests want to go there. It was also a quiet street, which we really appreciated, and street parking was very easy. We would have had an outstanding stay at Jason's place if we'd only been provided with the sofa bed linens that were asked for at time of booking; even with repeated requests, unfortunately we couldn't get them. If future guests want them provided, I suggest getting in contact directly with Jason to be sure they are there when you arrive.
