This was a great AirBnB, true to its description. Very close to LAX, but could not see/hear any aircraft. Leron was very good at communication before my stay; I arrived quite early on a Saturday morning and he greeted me when I arrived. The room was clean, spacious and comfortable. The wifi worked well, and it was great to have a fridge and a kettle. The Playa Vista area was nice and quiet, very suburban, easy to navigate and had a number of very good amenities (eg Whole Foods, yoga studio, etc).
The public bus was easy to access and easy to use; although I didn’t use the free weekend shuttle, it would have been easy to use and quite convenient. Leron lent me a bike, pointed out the bike path & other points of interest and I enjoyed the day biking to Venice Beach and Santa Monica.
Very close to Abbey Kinney, which I would like to explore more. I also biked the path and went to Manhattan beach, which was lovely. There were a number of good Happy Hour spots nearby as well. I had an early morning uber to LAX, and I didn’t have to wait long, the journey took about 15 minutes (max) and cost about $13 USD. I will definitely stay here again – I live in Australia but am from the East Coast of Canada. This is a perfect spot for a few days of beautiful beach, food and drink time to break up what would otherwise be a 40+hour journey. Couldn’t recommend it highly enough!!!
