This was my first time using Airbnb and I had a great time. Mike & Anna made my stay a memorable experience. The apartment was very clean and I could tell they made a great effort to make my stay perfect. The apartment looked just like the pictures, I was happy to see that there were no surprises! There was also parking for my car which is always useful in LA. The location is great and super close to everything. Being so close to the beach is amazing, it's just a five minute drive to to beach and Venice or Manhattan beach are really close to go surfing or watch the sunset. When I asked Mike for good places for going out to dinner or partying, he gave me a long list of places. He is easy to communicate with and has a great sense of humor. He offered to take me salsa dancing in Santa Monica but unfortunately I was a little too tired, but he seems to know the area really well. I definitely recommend Mike's apartment, It's hard to get a better price for this kind of quality. GREAT PLACE & PERFECT HOST!
