My boyfriend and I were in LA for a few days, I having gone to school in LA and him a LA novice, felt J.A.'s airbnb met all of our needs. The location was perfect, close enough to walk or run to the beach, while also having lots of cute restaurants and coffee shops near by. Parking on the street was never an issue as J.A. wrote. The space itself was quite large, it was nice to not feel cramped or on top of each other. The space was also beautiful, so much natural light and quintessential beach studio. J.A. was so kind, checking in on us and making sure all of our needs were met. I believe we were the only guests staying there at the moment so it was nice to feel like we had our own little private oasis in Venice. I highly recommend this space if you are looking to be in the Venice/Santa Monica area and it is definitely a space we would stay at again if and when we take another trip out west.
