We stayed in Shawn's house for a month in April and were just overwhelmed by her and her brother's (Brian lives next door) hospitality and kindness! We couldn't have had a better stay in LA and the location, the beach just a couple minutes' walk away, is just unbeatable. We really recommend staying at Shawn's for other reasons than just the location though, the insider tips we got as well as a roomy and cosy house instead of living in a hotel was just what we needed. Washer/dryer, AC, TV, Wifi, a fully equipped kitchen, grill and even sauna - this place has it all!
