The place is right near everything you would want to do in LA. whether it is shopping Rodeo Dr, hitting the waves in Venice, stargazing down Hollywood blvd, or just relaxing in Santa Monica. Nothing is more than a 15min drive even LAX, if you know LA that is REALLY good commuting time. The house is off the main drag and on a quiet street. the host is attentive and easy to communicate with. A true gem.
