Alison's place (The Madison) was perfect for our group: large, spacious, equipped with all the basics, generously equipped + stocked kitchen, and very conveniently located just a few minutes walk to the beach, 15-minute stroll to Venice, and easy to Uber to nearby MDR locations!
Alison was very communicative and generous in allowing us to check in early, available + quick to respond via Airbnb app when we had a question, and yet respectfully non-intrusive.
The only thing we feel inclined to mention - and this was *not* an issue for our group but could foresee being helpful for those considering this space - is that the interior throughout the house was extremely outdated (circa early 90s) and the decor + furnishings were piecemeal/random (definitely not contemporary or cohesive). We didn't get this impression from the photos, so I thought to mention here.
Overall a great place to stay for a casual group!
