Mary Ann's place was excellent for my wife and I's quick stay in Santa Monica. Check-in/out was a breeze with the door code, and communication was great from start to finish. Mary Ann was also super flexible with our very early flight into LA, which was much appreciated, as it allowed us to get out and about without having to drag our bags around all day. The neighborhood is very quiet while still being within a mile walking distance of both the beach and all of the great restaurants in downtown Santa Monica. Our private room was well-appointed with extra sheets for the trundle bed, a nice desk to work at, and everything you could need in the attached bathroom. For how expensive SM can get, this Airbnb was a great value and incredibly convenient in every way. I'd stay here again, for sure, next time we're in the area!
