We used FJ's place as a base of operations for my son's and his roommates' apartment hunting as they relocated to Santa Monica for business. The location was ideal as it was a short walk to the beach to stretch our legs and centrally located to the areas they were looking at for apartments (as well as a grocery store, Starbucks, etc.). The two parking spaces in the gated, basement garage were ideal, and we were still able to find a public spot on the street for our third car. The living room is large and the kitchen fully-equipped with modern appliances. There were 3 bedrooms total with a queen bed in two of them (one upstairs, one downstairs), and two twins in the other (upstairs). The upstairs bedrooms shared a bathroom, and there was a full bath downstairs adjacent to the downstairs bedroom. Four of us each had our own bed to sleep in, which was very convenient. Overall, a very convenient and ideally located place to explore the Santa Monica area.
