I was lucky to be one of the first guests in Margo’s recently renovated apartment. Though it is situated in quite old building the host made her best to create a fresh and bright atmosphere. The studio is really comfortable and sunny, the kitchen has everything you need to prepare meals. It is just a few steps from the ocean (and on the other side - Venice Canals!) indeed, I enjoyed walking along the beach to Santa Monica pier. The area is picturesque and quiet, easy access to public transport as well. Communication with the host was good, Margo stayed in touch the whole period of my stay and helped when needed. Recommend!
