We really enjoyed staying in Patrick's guesthouse. The location was a perfect base for our four day stay, helped by the fact that there was easy parking available just outside the property. Also round the corner was Superba where we had a fantastic brunch. The guesthouse had everything we needed to make some basic meals and space to enjoy hanging out when we weren't out and about exploring. Patrick was there to meet us when we arrived and graciously let us check in early when his previous guests left early that morning. He was very easy to deal with and has put together a great guide to Venice Beach which is left in the apartment. The location is perfect with an easy walk to Abbott Kinney and a Whole Foods only a few minutes drive away.
