Claudias place will always be our absolute FAVORITE place to stay in California. It is in the PERFECT location. So close to the Santa Monica Pier (a literal 3 min metro ride) and the metro transit is a 5 second walk from the place! The metro transit takes you everywhere too! So you won’t need to rent a car if you don’t want to. SO many good restaurants and coffee shops in walking distance (coffee commissary & cafe del mundo are my fav!) and claudias place is so stylish, and cozy, and SO clean. Has everything you need. In a quiet area. And she responds SO quickly, like within minutes. Absolutely love and won’t stay anywhere else!
