Having Doddie and Victoria as our first hosts was so welcoming for the entire Air BNB experience. I was very nervous about using Air BNB because I’ve heard horror stories where the hosts take the money and then have the house/room booked for someone else and it’s just downhill from there. Doddie and Victoria was NOT like that. They explain and spell everything out for you as if you’re new to this whole thing. From where the keys were to the welcome binder on the table. Everything you need, they thought of! The kitchenette has everything you need. The living room had a wide range of books to choose from. Lots of movies as well. But come on, if you’re on vacation, you aren’t going to be watching tv. Grab a book and go to the beach, right? If not, that’s fine. They also had take out menus for local restaurants near by. My husband and I went to Rock and Brews on Main and Franklin. Absolutely delish, by the way. I was a little nervous about the airport being so close, but we slept so well at night, they offer ear plugs for your stay, but we didn’t need them. The shower was absolutely stunning and modern. Loved it. The bed was huge and so welcoming. Extra pillows for those who need them (like me. Haha). Very warm blankets and hangars in the closet to hang your clothes. I’m not kidding. They have literally everything you will need. Umbrellas, beach towels and chairs, a hose to rinse your sandy feet. Everything. I will definitely be coming back when we visit El Segundo. Doddie, I just wanted to share that the chat we had was very meaningful for me. Thank you for the warm hugs. And again, I hope you had a great Mother’s Day trip. Xoxoxox
