Brandon's place is fantastic. It's just as pictured -- actually, we found it even more welcoming and charming in real life. Very clean throughout. Sunshine floods the main living space in the morning and daytime, which was delightful. LOVE the bathroom, especially the extra deep tub. The outdoor space was perfect for sitting with coffee and a book in the morning, or for intimate drinks in the evening. Kitchen was also perfect, whether you are doing minimal light meal prep or cooking up most of the meals for your stay. Washer and dryer saved the day for post-beach clean-up before heading to our next destination. Neighborhood wasn't silent, but was far from noisy -- you'd likely consider it calm if you're visiting from another major city. Appreciated having a parking spot right outside the front door. We were so comfortable and cozy here -- would definitely try to stay here again when I'm back in L.A.!
