barbara was a very warm and welcoming host. accessing the property was by code so was much easier than having a set of keys to remember.
the room and separate bathroom felt so cosy and homely. (the shade of green on the walls is also my absolute favourite and looks very classy!) we slept like logs on both nights of our stay and were grateful for the coffee machine, microwave and fridge at our disposal. the bath and shower were easy to use and we had the luxury of a sink each!
barbara also made sure we were happy with the temp in the room as california can get chilly at the moment.
a pleasant 30 minute walk to the beach and to abbot kinney blvd etc nearby and the area is lovely.
we didn’t get chance to use the bikes but to have the option was a great thought!
all in all it was a wonderful stay, made more memorable by the hospitality and understanding shown by barbara and art, on the occasions where i required a little extra assistance. highly recommended for anyone visiting santa monica.
