Nancy's place was perfect for our 5 day trip to LA. The space is charming..wooden floors and a bit creaky....just as you would expect from a 100 year old house! It has a great aspect and catches the evening sun which gives it a great atmosphere. Nancy was very charming and attentive, waiting up late for us (as our flight was a bit delayed), and gave us some local restaurant & sightseeing tips when we arrived. The visitor parking was very useful.....on the street...but we never had any problems finding a space.
The location was fantastic.....one block from the 'real' Santa Monica main street, with a great selection of shops, restaurants - far better than 3 street promenade (which is basically a shopping centre). It's an easy 3 blocks from the beach, and a quick walk to Santa Monica pier. We also walked to Venice in about 40 mins.
Definitely recommended for 2 people, (or 3 if you have a small one as we did).
