Perfect place to stay when visiting Santa Monica/LA area. We were first time visitors to California and this location is perfect. We felt very safe in Santa Monica and the drive to the touristy areas of Hollywood and Beverly Hills were less than 15 miles to all the places we wanted to go. The unit couldn’t have been any better for our family of 3. Our 16 year old had his own bedroom/bathroom on the opposite side of the unit from ours. The unit was well stocked with items of convenience, as well as charging ports for phones. The gated parking garage and the washer/dryer were a huge plus for us traveling from the East Coast. We conveniently rented scooters, bikes, and also walked to 3rd Street Promenade and the Santa Monica Pier and beach during our stay. I already promised our son we could go back and if this unit is available, we will book again. The communication with owner is excellent. Highly recommend!
