Tom was very responsive and provided detailed instructions for the apartment although we still found it a little bit tricky to find when we arrived after a long flight - it is positioned just on the corner plot.
The apartment is extremely well equipped and spacious and we enjoyed the flexibility of being able to dine in as well as eat out. Gelson’s supermarket across the road was really handy after a busy day out and about.
We didn’t meet Tom which was a shame but did have a visit from his beautiful cat!
Location was good for us, quiet and residential, a little bit of a walk into Santa Monica itself, the beach, Main Street etc but easy Uber ride back after dinner if needed.
