Just returned from LA and an amazing stay at Paul and Karen's guest house. Was exactly as described and as per photos. Light and spacious with great storage, room to move around and generous bathroom. Location is superb with Redondo Beach literally at the end of the road. Bikes were a nice touch and we took advantage several times with trips along the beachside cycleway to Hermosa for a gelato. When at home we are avid TV watchers and so appreciated the huge amount of content available for relaxing in the evening after a hard day's shopping or theme-parking. Although due to our full schedule we didn't get to interact that much with Paul, when we did he proved an accommodating and thoughtful host with an open and friendly nature and definitely made us feel welcome.
All in all we had a wonderful time with only 2 minor drawbacks. One is that there is no AC which for the time we were there caused one or two restless nights as it was so hot. Maybe it's not always that intense and we were just lucky with the weather - one of the shop owners did remark it was unseasonably warm - however as I say this is a minor point and is overshadowed by all the positives. The other drawback is that as word gets around about just how good it is here I'm worried we may not be able to get back in next year! Better book early!!
