Best Apt in Downtown Santa Monica!
I lived in 525 for two years and would highly recommend it to anybody that is interested in living in the downtown SM area. The building is modern, clean, and run exceptionally well by Laurie! She is wonderful to work with, is exceptionally responsive, and keeps the place in tip-top shape at all times! Additionally, the location is walkable to the beach, countless restaurants, bars, shopping, etc.
