I stayed for a week at Erika's bungalow and loved it! It is very quiet, beautifully decorated, has a super cute private outdoor area where you can enjoy the Santa Monica sunshine and has all the necessities of a home away from home. The apartment is also very close to many businesses in the immediate surrounding area. I could actually walk to my office. And Erika is an amazing host. She has left fresh organic apples and bananas for me and there was a bottle of organic OJ and Preseco chilling in the fridge. She was also happy to help with any questions I had, but was completely respectful of my privacy. Definitely stay here if you are in the Santa Monica area whether it be for business or pleasure.
