I stayed 8 nights at Allyson's place. Great location with easy access to public transport and shops. Not far from Santa Monica Beach.
The place wasn't very clean in particular and the furniture is not new. At the same time, it is for a good price in such a nice neighborhood and has a good mattress (at least for my taste).
Although, a private room it felt like I was the only tenant for the whole period. This was a good stay.
