Fj's Place was located in Santa Monica and an easy 5 minute ride to the beach - grocery stores, large mall, and Santa Monica Pier. For us, it was too hard to walk to due to home is on a street up a long hill. The condo was clean and great for our party of 5. Condo manager a real sweetheart. Fred was quick to reply via phone. Be aware if you have walking or knee issues - there are stairs to second floor and ground floor bedroom has a bathtub that one must step up into (12"+) the shower. No handrail so getting down is a bit scary if you have accessibility issues. Value for area - fantastic and the location met our needs for a Santa Monica wedding. PS - EASY drive from LAX!!
