Akiko's appartment is the ideal place in Santa Monica. The room is spacious and VERY clean. The bathrooms (there are two) are cleaned every day. Therefore the apartment is clean any time, even if multiple guests stay in her house. The location of the house is also very good. It is app. a 20 min walk away from the Santa Monica beach, with many stores and food places around and only a 2 minute walk away from a great supermarket. The neighborhood always felt safe.

Akiko herself is wonderful. We talked to her a lot and she is very friendly and concerned about her guests well-being. She placed water and fresh fruits in the room before arrival and always made sure to help solve problems. When we rented a car she even supplied us with a parking permit for the area.

We enjoyed staying with Akiko very much and can only recommend her rooms to others.
