Laurie's place was great! It was a quiet and comfortable place to come home to after days out exploring Santa Monica. Check in was seamless, the location was very convenient and the parking spot was very helpful for our rental. The place is conveniently located near restaurants/cafes (try Sidecar for coffee and donuts!), a grocery store, the beach and main streets of Santa Monica. Laurie was helpful, friendly and responsive. I would highly recommend Laurie's place!
