My husband and I wanted to take a trip to L.A. and ended up choosing to stay in Hermosa Beach. We rented a car to do day trips into the city. We had a great stay! Awesome location! The studio was clean and pretty much described perfectly. We fell in love with Hermosa/Manhattan Beach and are thinking about returning! We loved the fact we were close to so many dining options and entertainment! Being steps from the beach was awesome!
