I suppose that we all are looking for a clean, safe place to spend away from home. But it's safe to say that we're likely hoping for something special. This Airbnb meets the two first criteria and fulfilled my hope for something extra. The house sits on a corner lot in a tidy neighborhood that is not overrun with auto traffic and the room has character and comfort. One added bonus that I enjoyed was easy access to public transportation, including buses leading north on the Westwood Blvd. corridor toward UCLA, and bus and metro lines extending west and east to Santa Monica and Downtown LA, for example. Both bus and Metro will drop you off at the Santa Monica Pier and to all of the seafront, shopping and dining attractions that that city offers. I've already planned my next visit.
