Darlene's place was perfect. Located is a quiet, safe neighborhood yet walking distance to the beach. There is a good selection of restaurants nearby or stay in and prepare your own meal. Separated from the main house the room was quiet, private and immaculately presented. Darlene is interested in her guests and strives to ensure that they enjoy they stay in Santa Monica which we did. Darlene left some breakfast provisions and a bottle of wine. She also has friendly little dogs which we enjoyed patting. We simply could not have been more comfortable. If you are visiting Sana Monica look no further.
