This place is very clean, updated, and cozy. It really is like a home away from home. There's a nice yard here that's very open with comfortable lounge chairs & patio furniture. Close to the marina and shops. Great place for a family. Kitchen has high-end appliances, including washer & dryer. Kitchen had everything we needed to make home cooked meals. Everything worked perfectly. Close to a very nice park. If you need to hit the beaches or L.A. tourist traps, you have to rent a car. Franco and Iris were great hosts. They were warm & inviting. The place has everything you need for a comfortable stay and a safe neighborhood feel. Would stay there again.
