Mary Ann‘s house is in a nice and quite area of Santa Monica nearby to beaches, shopping and dining. The communication with the host and check in procedure was excellent and Mary Ann was extremely helpful! The guest room is nice and very clean, bed was comfortable. The only downsides were that the room had no A/C and was thereby quite hot at night, the other one was an intense cat smell in the entire house including the guest room. However, if you are neither sensitive to cats nor heat, I would highly recommend this place.
