Nice loft property
I stayed 5 weeks at the unit, Aug - Sept 2019. I was working in the area, and needed a place close to Pacific Coast Highway (PCH). The unit is one of several in a multi-flat property.
Property owners were exceptionally gracious and helpful. I was given a free upgrade to this unit, from a more modest one that I had originally booked. The unit I stayed in was nicely furnished and decorated. Kitchen and bath appeared to be new, and well-supplied with necessities. Superior-quality, ultra-quiet ceiling fans in living room and bedroom. A/C unit in LR.
The interior is laid out in a loft configuration. As you walk in the front door, you have the living room to your left. In front of you is a short flight of stairs, with a turn, up to the bedroom and adjoining bath. Walking through the LR, there is an open passage into the dining and kitchen area.
A few minor issues came up during my stay, all of which were immediately resolved.
Constructive criticism : the shower configuration is awkward and inconvenient. Shower walls don't go up very high, and there's no shower door or curtain. This limits how much handheld shower can be adjusted. I was forced to crouch over at the foot of the bathtub.
Also, the king-size bed was a little soft for me. I prefer at least a medium-firm mattress.
Street noise : property is at the foot of a hill, at the intersection where 2 residential streets come together. There wasn't much traffic at all, but there did seem to be a fair number of cars driving by early in the morning. I'm a light sleeper, so I had to wear earplugs. During the day, there was often a fair amount of construction noise either by the property handyman, or residential construction nearby.
