This was the perfect place for me while visiting my daughters who live nearby. Ellen greeted me with the keys, parking pass and garage door opener at my convenience. So nice to have a garage available even though street parking is easy. I enjoyed walking EVERYWHERE! I love Montana street so it was great to be so close to all the shops and fabulous restaurants. The beach is an easy walk. If you like to walk (as I do!), downtown Santa Monica is easily accessible. If you choose to drive, parking downtown is easy and very inexpensive. The apartment was perfect for my needs. Very clean and located in a quiet, safe neighborhood. I hope this apartment will be available when I make my next visit to Santa Monica!
