This studio's location was perfect for all of my needs. As a runner of the 2019 Los Angeles marathon, the finish line was right outside the window so commute after the race was super easy. The apartment is adjacent to the ocean as well as within walking distance of the Third Street Promenade and other nice restaurants and shopping options in Santa Monica. The only drawback was noise coming from the bar downstairs, which was well reported in other public descriptions and reviews of this Airbnb. For the price, this option served me and my four-day stay quite adequately. The cleaning staff was very friendly and efficient when they cleaned up. While the location itself is small, it is still cozy and agreeable for a person or two, but would be nice to see a small table be added to facilitate in eating a quick lunch or dinner.
