Jason's guesthouse was a great spot to stay — especially longer term. I was working from home and apt. hunting so I just needed a quiet, cozy place. It was nice staying in a little neighborhood and away from the touristy part of Santa Monica. Parking was easy and there was a little park super close that I took my dog too. Their outdoor area was super cute and no one used it while I was there (it was raining and cold though).
