I can not believe there would be a better choice than living in the place of Paul! The location is perfect, with a short drive to down town and the beach, while you do not have to bear the and noise and crowd of downtown. The room is very well maintained with everything you need for a trip - and to my surprise, Paul even prepared beers and white wine for my family. The two lovely dogs, Bella and Carla, are so 'hospitable' and friendly, bringing so much happiness to my daughter! Paul, a fan of sports, would also give the suggestion as needed, like a good route for morning running. I hope we could have the opportunity to come back to Los Angeles in future and live at their place again.
