I cannot recommend Le Petit Coquillage enough!! And Olivier was just the perfect host!! The room is a great size with everything you could possibly need! The bed is super comfy (I slept really well!) the private bathroom is a great bonus too!! The area is quiet and the location over all is great, with only a 10min walk to Main Street (with lots of great restaurants and cafes!) and the beach is only a 15min walk away! I loved Santa Monica overall and being so close to the beach suited me really well, for everything else there is uber/lyft!
I can’t thank Olivier enough for being such an incredible host! Everything was absolutely perfect and I would definitely stay here again next time I’m in LA :)
