This little cottage was perfect for our visit to Santa Monica. It was clean, comfortable, and perfect location. It's in a quiet residential area, with easy walk to Main St. where there are shops and restaurants. Also walk-able to the beach and Santa Monica Pier. All was just as advertised. We had no need to reach out to the hosts Flavia and Niall, as everything was great. However, when we did communicate re: arrival and departure, they were very responsive and thoughtful.
