Cassidy's place is nicely located in a residential section of Venice. Restaurants, coffee shops, and shopping are within a 10-15 minute walk to Abbot Kinney, Lincoln Ave, or Rose Ave. If you're aiming to go car-free, the Big Blue Bus's #18 and #3 lines pass very nearby, with a fare of just $1.25. The bungalow is stylishly furnished, with a very comfortable bed and great sunlight throughout the day. The patio area is a nice place to sit and eat, chat, read a book, etc. Cassidy is easy to communicate with and responsive. Check in and out were smooth and easy, and the bungalow was equipped with the basic amenities we needed. Area eateries we enjoyed: Groundwork Coffee [Rose Ave], Salt & Straw (great ice cream!) and Abbot's Habit (coffee, breakfast, etc) [Abbot Kinney], Tacos Por Favor [Electric Ave]. The walk/bike/skate along the beach between Venice and Santa Monica is everything you really need in a vacation, and a nice breeze seems to always cool the neighborhood.
