Booked this place for my parents, and they were over the moon happy with it. Jo and her partner are very responsive and eager to help, and in addition to maintaining a wonderful living space also have an impressive garden from which they happily shared the fruits of their labor. The neighborhood is a beautiful, quiet residential area that is within ~3-5 minutes walking distance from a very nice park, and only one block away from a major street in Santa Monica for locating activities and ease of getting around. My parents have already asked to come back to this spot whenever they come visit in the future, and I too would recommend this unit for anyone.
The only items to note are:
1) Because of the aforementioned garden, and the presence of other units in the backyard, it can be a little confusing to find the appropriate space. We were lucky enough to run into the hosts on the way in, but this could be tricky.
2) The space is small, and best used as a home base rather than for lounging
