The nice part is place is 1 minute from Venice Beach. The not so nice part is the communication from the hosts was really lacking, they ignored most of my messages, especially the ones when something went wrong, such as parking or not having supplies prepared that you would expect a place that lists for one month stays only to have (e.g. paper towels, trash bags). Also the hosts were not personable; we never saw them and it felt like dealing with a property company. The place was also fairly sandy when we got in and some of the glassware was cracked. They sell you a parking pass after you book, but I found that street parking out front was not difficult. The street the master bed in next to is fairly busy, one of the nights I was there a drunk driver crashed in front of the window.
