The property we stayed at was perfect for us. It was a large studio apartment with a full kitchen and enough room to feel comfortable. The studio was clean and well kept up with many conveniences which made a stay pleasant and enjoyable. The Keurig coffee maker was so convenient and the host supplied pods to use with a variety of sugar and sugar substitutes too. The stove was great as were the refrigerator and microwave. The television was easy to use and placed in the most, again convenient, spot where we could watch it from the table where we ate our meals, the small sofa, or the bed for late night viewing. The apartment was also located in a great spot. It was within walking distance to Vons, a great grocery store, as well as a number of restaurants. There were also various and sundry shops and attractions in almost every direction in both walking and driving range. Additionally there was the view from the balcony. While it was not a straight shot to view the ocean, it was easily visible and we saw any number of cruise ships arrive and depart. All in all the little place was a wonderful place to stay. And the host has been a gem to deal with. We communicated a number of times before our arrival. He was patient and willing to work with us on what we needed. His instructions for beginning and ending our stay were clear and understandable. The experience was all in all one my husband and I enjoyed and will remember fondly.
