Aleson war kompetent und freundlich, sie reagierte schnell und half bei Fragen. Das Apartment war wunderbar gelegen, um zum Haus meiner Tochter und meines Schwiegersohns zu gelangen , herrlich um mit ihnen Weihnachten, Silvester und auch meinen Geburtstag zu feiern.Alle Geschäfte und Restaurants sind fußläufig erreichbar. Das einzig Störende,wofür aber die Agence nichts kann, waren teilweise ganztägige Bauarbeiten an den Häusern rundum und auf dem Balkon direkt hinter meinem Bett.Wegen der vielen Vorteile für mich würde ich das Apartment nochmal buchen.

The tranquility and charm but modern touches make for an excellent spot to enjoy one of the most walkable areas in Santa Monica/Los Angeles with beautiful weather and the beach nearby!
