This place is fine if you just need a nice bedroom to crash in. The bed was comfortable, had blackout curtains, plenty of closet space, and a private bathroom. The living room and kitchen however, seemed very dirty and uninviting for guests. There were bbq and ketchup bottles left sitting out on the coffee table, and the refrigerator and countertops needed a serious wipe down. The listing advertises a nice bar area to chill at in the living room, but there were cardboard boxes piled up behind it, making it look inaccessible. The location of the Airbnb was great, it’s on a beautiful and quiet street. Walking distance to downtown Santa Monica and public transit. I appreciated being able to book this last minute and the clean and comfy bedroom, but probably would not rebook due to the common area.
