Claudia is a great host and communicator. The place is small, but has everything you need for a solo traveler or couple to stay comfortably and enjoy Santa Monica. Claudia provides a very generous assortment of toiletries and thoughtful things (like those little tissue packs) for guests to use. Good location, close to restaurants and shops. Great little coffee/pastry spot right down the street on the corner. Quiet at night, too. Her place is a good value in a very expensive area. Would definitely stay again. Thanks, Claudia!
