Amelie's place is a great jumping-off point for relaxing in Santa Monica and exploring downtown LA. We stayed two nights and were quite comfortable. Amelie was an exceptional communicator, which we very much appreciate! There's a metro stop about a five-minute walk from the apartment that takes you to Santa Monica in about 15 minutes. Driving to K-Town took us about 30 minutes in traffic, 15 minutes without traffic. The apartment itself is comfortable and clean but not luxurious, which suited our needs perfectly. Very smooth stay. Would stay again!
