Wonderful place to stay! The location was great for checking out Santa Monica and Venice by foot and bike. There are a ton of shops and restaurants relatively nearby and also conveniences like a supermarket and coffee shop within walking distance. The room was exactly as described and very comfortable. While we didn't meet Olivier in person, he was very responsive to emails and very friendly and accommodating. We took several of his suggestions of things to do in the area and happy we did (rented bicycles and cruised to Venice one day and took a hike with amazing views another day). Be sure to utilize the off-street parking he provides in the garage - you will definitely get a parking ticket on the street! We would definitely stay here again if visiting the area. Thanks Olivier!
