Olivier was a great host - he was there when I checked in and even helped with the bags. In the 5 days that we stayed at Casita del Sol, I was lucky to have had a chance to chat with him and found him to be funny, intelligent and well travelled, with an effortlessly calm, friendly nature.
The room is relaxing, clean, bright and spacious. The bed is extremely comfortable and has ample storage space in the built-in closets (with extra bedding available). The bathroom is modern and spotless. Balcony is private and great to chill out on. It's obvious he has put thought into how guests can have a better experience with small details that make this listing stand out - like the quality and holistic toiletries, fresh towels, mini-fridge, tea & coffee, etc.
To top it all off, it's in a really quiet location, yet within easy walking distance to many restaurants, Santa Monica beach and even Venice Beach. Hiking trails and Hollywood are a short (and cheap) Uber ride away. I wouldn't hesitate to stay there again.
