If you are looking to only stay a few days, this place is convenient when trying to go around LA. Venice and Santa Monica are near with its popular activities. If you are flying in, it is relatively close to the airport. The bed is huge and comfortable. Good for traveling couples who are only here to eat and sleep. The only down side is the hollow wall above the room where noise can be a bit sensitive. If you are a light sleeper, this may not be the right fit. Other than that, the place is great and the hosts are awesome!
