I loved my stay here! It was as beautiful and clean as the photos depict, easy to access + a good landing pad for exploring LA. I didn’t find that Hawthorne had a whole lot to offer for me personally, but I was in Manhattan Beach with an easy 15 minute drive, and also got to explore Venice and Santa Monica. Also so close to LAX airport! As a female solo traveler, safety is always a top priority. I felt safe in this quiet neighborhood - and Theresa was a great host. I would definitely stay here again!
