I stayed for 1 month at Nicole's place - it was fabulous! The place is just as lovely as the pictures. The location is fantastic - quiet neighborhood and less touristy than the promenade, but still close enough to get there if you want. We were around the corner from Montana Ave. with wonderful shops, restaurants, and a 10-minute walk to the beach. The place was super clean and beds were so comfy. The host was attentive and responsive to messages, check-in & check-out were easy. I will defintely be back and recommend it highly - you'll love it!
