I was very pleased with my stay in Santa Monica. The apt. is right down the street from the beach and a nice walk to the world reknown Third Street Promenade. I took a bus (the Blue Bus #3) from and to LAX in just 25 minutes for $1.25 each way and the bus stops are right out front. The beds were Sleep Number beds, very comfortable and the room was spacious. The shower was hot and powerful, always a plus for me. My hostess was pleasant and very accomodating.
