The location is absolutely excellent, and as central as you get, in a beautiful neighborhood. The apartment is a bit like a guesthouse, with low ceilings and some outdoor space. The draw for us was being steps from Santa Monica Boulevard, Trader Joe's etc., yet in a convenient gated complex. The door keypads made coming and going super easy. The only qualm would be the value vis-a-vis the present price point. There certainly were some better options on Vrbo, and Airbnbs I've used in the past. The place felt a bit crammed for LA, and lacked some feng shui (e.g. the couch does not face the TV, the kitchen chairs interfere with opening the dishwasher, one bedroom has no mirror or chair, etc.) But for a short-term stay, it's all about location, location, location. And Mason's place certainly does the trick. In baseball terminology, just expect a single or a double not a home-run.
