Honestly, don't even know where to start it took 3 hrs to get the entry access information from the owner and 4 phone calls 2 to hotel.com /2 owner...this place was posted as $89 a night and than you get slapped with $112 service fees/taxes-really it was $212 a night. I'm not one to complain but this place needs to spend some $ invest in some new furniture, linens and towel ! Unacceptable part was the BLACK MOLD all over the bathroom. The comforter had 3 huge stains right on top, 4 towels only (crappy towels, not matching)pillows with no pillow cases! The walls dirty, the fans thick dust, closet was so dusty wouldn't even put my stuff in it! Literally spider webs inside windows. The blinds literally fell on my friends head. Let's not forget the horrible headaches we all got from the giant 5G box (electromagnetic sickness)-seriously uncomfortable beds- couches with cushions from some other couch, dirt and filth baseboards! nice owner but this is not what worth it
Für Leute ohne jegliche Ansprüche Couchbezüge und Matrazen im Wohnzimmer ekelhaft. Sauberkeit gleich null.Gute Preisleistungverhältis,gute Lage zu Fuss ist man in eine Stunde am Meer.Schöne Garten
Great location, good set up (comfortable beds, kitchenette, bathroom). If you're not in the front house, parking is now a real issue. The only problem with this place is it's impossible to get in touch with anyone in management. The TV only works through Roku but there was no Roku remote. I tried to use my phone, but apparently the Roku is on a different wifi than the one they give you so you can't turn your phone into a remote. They will not call you back, they will not help at all with any questions past the info sheet you have to remember to ask for or they won't send it to you on how to get into the house, use the wifi, etc. Also, they will add a ridiculous amount on top of the advertised price. As such, it's really more an air bnb with no owner around or available for help than something you'd find on hotels.com
The communication with the landlord is dreadful. He seemed to have a "pre-written" LOOOOONG reply to all his guests. He sent this LOOOOONG copy-paste reply to me, using a passcode to enter the property that it wasn't working anymore. When we get to the property, we could not get in, which in the end it turned to be a good thing, as the place is infested by mosquitos. So we founded a nice hotel to spend our 4 days in Los Angeles, with much better infra-structure and cheaper!!! Also he lied saying that there is parking space which HAS NOT! The only available space is for the front property, not for the annex.

Great location. Property and furnishings not in great shape
The location was excellent for visiting friends in the área. Very comfortable for 1 person, even 2. Walking distance to both Pico and Bundy for buses, restaurants, small businesses, banks, etc. Also walking distance to Expo/Bundy metro station, Nice, quiet neighborhood perfect for what I needed. Check in instructions are very clear and timely. Ron, the manager, answers all questions promptly. Good AC and heated bathroom is quite the luxury. I´ll certainly return when I visit the area again.
I needed a door key code for this property. I had to get Travelocity involved to get a response from the hotel then the hotel finally emailed me the information I needed.
As soon as I entered the property I tripped over a 4" rise in the floor level.
The smoke detector battery was missing. Local Fire and Safety Codes require every room for rent to be equipped with a working smoke detector - This property is in violation of these Codes.
TV - Not worth watching with the ROKU/Sling TV setup they have. Why not have a Terrestrial Off The Air HD TV antenna set up so you could watch Network TV, Weather and Sports? And that is free for the owner. I missed the LA Dodgers Baseball World Series Playoff.
Wi-Fi - They offered 2 sources. The strong signal had no connectivity to the Internet. The signal which had Internet connectivity was so weak it was not worth using. I ended up using my iPhone as a hot-spot - At MY expense.
Air Conditioning - Did not work. It comes on every 10 minutes and runs exactly 16 seconds then shuts off.
Ice Maker - Did not work. It seems like it is not connected to the water supply.
Dimming lights - There are 5 bulbs on the main circuit - 4 bulbs would dim, but the 5TH bulb remains at full illumination. Go Figure!
On the plus side the property was clean and quiet, and the beds were very comfortable. A little more attention to details on the owner's part would make this a great place to stay.
So let me start by saying google maps will totally lead you to another street with exactly the same name a few miles away. That's really annoying, so beware!
So this little property is a guest cottage in the back of somebody's house in a typical kind of rundown L.A. neighborhood wedged between freeways. Yes there's an outdoor area with a barbecue and some chairs and a table or whatever. They strung some Christmas lights up, kind of sad. There's trash and recycling bins and cobwebs and an old car parked in the driveway and well, stuff like that. No offense it's just not a high quality kind of adventure. Fine if you're a more casual type, and I am provided it's the right casual, and this ain't. Also, it's not within walking distance of the beach, but of course being in walking distance to anything in LA is a long shot. So yeah I do love Santa Monica but basically, I'd stay elsewhere.
I stayed with my husband and daughter at the studio for 6 nights. We love it!
The house has good beds, big fridge laundry and everything to make your stay comfortable
We also used the barbaque
To improve: WiFi- signal at the studio is very poor.

OK-ish
Great neighborhood, and great pictures. However place was not clean, not well organized, and not as nice as the pictures represent. Overall, not terrible, but still far from advertised.
the photo in the website is not the same as the property and the ad for the property says free parking but after renting you will get an email that its a bungalow at the back and you cant go on the drive way and you cant park as well.
you have to go to the side street to park the vehicle and the ad says premium bedding but in fact its a very uncomfortable piece of foam on springs so its quiet uncomfortable.
pillows are bad as well.
the floor is dirty and non carpeted so you cannot roam around bare footed.
Lack of space for more than 2 people, beds are too big for the place and extremely noisy. The place is close to Santa Monica, 3 metro stations away. Backyard, BBQ conditions very poor, terrible chairs to sit on, no grass. Possibly OK for younger travellers looking for a budget, however still expensive for what it offers.
I think it would be great to stay in the house. Here are the issues we had with being in the back.
1. The photos border on fraud, making the room look like there's space to move. This is a room that should have 1 bed, not 2.
2. There wasn't enough cutlery.
3. There weren't enough dishes.
4. There weren't enough towels, and the ones present were old and dingy.
5. The A/C until was inadequate, so the room was always muggy.
6. The linens were still in the dryer when we got there.
7. The area outside the entry was filthy, but the photos make it look like you can have people over for barbecues.
8. People in the back are not allowed to park there, not even on the street in front of the house. You are relegated to a side street that isn't even adjacent. You do get the parking privilege to load and unload, though.
9. We were scrambling to be out by 11 because we were cleaning it up a little. My husband closed the door at 11:05 just as the cleaning crew pulled up to block our exit. A little punishment for not leaving soon enough? The kids and I were in the driveway with the open-trunked car, too, so that move seemed quite unnecessary.
10. We forgot to log out of Netflix, and no one logged us out. People continued to watch with our account. It should be standard for all Netflix-enabled properties to double-check for guest logout, understanding the possible chaos of the checkout process.
Our whole trip was negatively affected by this rental.

Interesting place
One of the worst communicators on our entire trip to So. California. We had to reach out to the owner MULTIPLE times before he FINALLY sent us our check-in information just prior to arrival. It caused unnecessary stress for us while on vacation.

Nice little house in Santa Monica
I needed an inexpensive place to stay in Santa Monica, CA for one night. When I searched the hotels.com I found a special rate of $99. After entering my cc info I was shocked to see a total of $213. Buried in the fine print is a tax fee of $113. Worst part... it was non refundable! After using Hotels.com for many years I was very disappointed with their lack of clearly posting their “Special Rates.”
1. The picture shows the main house but the property is in the backyard
2. When we entered the room, the bed was not done. Looks like someone before slept and then left and no cleaning was done.
3. Trash was not cleared in the kitchen and restroom.
4. The bed is extremely soft and you sink in and your back hurts the next day.
Highly recommend to look for a different place so your trip stays memorable.
