My partner and I had a wonderful stay at Drew's upstairs home in Venice in celebration of a birthday milestone. Drew was communicative and responsive, let us drop off our luggage on arrival and even gave us access a bit early after the cleaning was completed. He wasn't the least bit intrusive but let us know he was there if we needed anything, which we didn't because everything was very well organized and clear.
The home was delivered to us as represented in the pictures. It was quiet, attractive, and very comfortable. It was also light and bright, with drapes to pull for sleeping, and provided great cross-ventilation for the ocean breezes. The location was superb with close proximity to Abbott Kinny shops and restaurants and about a 10-minute walk to the beach. The entire area is a walker's paradise. Parking on the street was easy and although an off-street space was offered, we did not feel a need to use it. It also felt very safe, and we didn't need to worry about vandalism like we've experienced in San Francisco.
Drew provided a great to stay to enjoy a big birthday in Venice and LA. We would gladly jump at the chance to stay in his home again when we're able to return to the area.
