The location of Brendan's place can't be beaten. It's at the nice end of a Venice Beach and a host of great pubs and restaurants are nearby. Brendan will steer you in the right direction. The space is airy and bright and literally right on the beach. Fantastic! Be aware that it is a walk up on the second floor and it certainly isn't a new building. Also, it can be noisy, particular on the weekends but all that energy is part of the reason one stays in Venice Beach and not Marina Del Rey, next door.
