I stayed in Santa Monica for ten weeks this past summer while doing an internship, and I would have to say that living with Ryan at 6th/Ocean Park was my favorite part of the summer. Ryan was simply the best roommate I could have hoped for, especially for someone new to the area. He was so incredibly nice and welcoming, had the room set up beautifully for me, and always had really fun ideas for activities to do. He showed me around the area and even introduced me to his family and friends; it was hard not to fall in love with the California lifestyle! I especially bonded with his cat, Leia, and loved getting to live with her as well. The apartment itself truly felt like a home from the moment I walked in, and I was immediately comfortable living there. All in all, it was the perfect location in the perfect neighborhood with the perfect person. I would recommend staying here for anyone who wants to have a truly fantastic stay in Santa Monica. I even hope one day to return there and visit!
