Dawna's place was exactly as described. It was clean and cozy. We stayed in here in the winter months so we had to make use of the space heaters provided so it worked out great. Check In/Out was a breeze...Location is easy access to beaches and freeways. The apartment sits in the rear of a house and is the second floor unit. You can hear a little bit from the downstairs neighbor but nothing out of the ordinary for an apartment. Overall, we had a nice stay and Dawna is a highly recommended host!
