This apartment was so lovely, and my fiance and I enjoyed our time there. It's full of light and decorated in a soothing, clean, classy motif. The windows looking out onto a huge palm tree and the beach are spectacular! I'm not too familiar with the various neighborhoods of LA, and I had read that San Pedro is not nice, but this little area of San Pedro by the beach is absolutely wonderful. We bought groceries at the local Vons to save money, but there were two cute no-frills diners within two blocks, as well as a convenience store. We walked about 25 mins to the grocery story and took an uber cab back. The grocery story clerk and the cab driver could not BELIEVE we were staying in San Pedro and were very negative about the neighborhood, so SP, you need to work on your tourism front. We are New Yorkers so we are not afraid of unwittingly walking down a sketchy block. This is a great deal, steps from the beach, and not far from LAX if you just want to get away and still be able to cook. The beach had picnic tables and was adjacent to a park and there were lots of people around. Caroline was super responsive; my only complaint is that she expects a LOT of cleaning before you leave so if you want to be prepared, ask for a copy of her lengthy "house rules" before you book. And note that you can leave an extra $20 if you don't want to clean. Her description of everything the apartment offers is extremely accurate, from nice towels to a huge well-placed TV that can be watched from the bed or the couch. It was a really relaxing retreat with no drama and everything in easy working condition. An ideal airbnb experience!
