The guest house was top notch with great furnishings and decor. Shelley was very hospitable and left some welcome goodies for me. It's nice to have these extra touches. Equipped with everything I needed, from desk to TV, closet space to mini kitchen, and more. It was a rare heat wave while I was there, but the fans helped, and Shelley was planning to install AC (which is also pretty rare in Santa Monica)! I walked nearby for groceries and take out dinner. The street itself is dark at night, but I kept my flashlight phone handy. You will be comfortable here.
