We spent five nights at this property as the final stage of our trip down the PCH with the intention of seeing a bit of LA. We did look at the previous reviews and did a bit of research around the area and the proximity to the sights etc.
We had problems with the door lock.The host had advised us that it may stick and we spent a good 10 minutes trying to get in. I tried to ring him but the phone number was not in use, so I left a message but did not get any reply.
We did eventually manage to gain entry and found a very clean and tidy house. The fittings and furniture were quite dated but the kitchen had all of the facilities that we needed and was spotless.
The main living room was very basic with three vinyl fold down settee's which I imagine would make up the double beds if you were to bring 10 people to the property.
The back garden/yard was shaded by large trees, the BBQ was large and modern but was filthy and hadn't been used in ages. Likewise, the outdoor furniture was also filthy and unusable - we never used either, in fact we never opened the back door again.
The property is well located for Santa Monica (8 mins) and the other towns on the coast where we spent much of our time. We reached the Griffith Observatory and Hollywood in 30-40 mins.
We also thought that the security deposit was somewhat excessive which was taken at time of payment and was only returned two weeks after we had left.
A bit basic and not one to visit if you like lying in the sun.
