We had a wonderful time at Pierre's place !!! The apartment is ideally located, in a residential, very quiet area. 5 minutes walk to Whole Foods, 5 minutes drive to Venice beach (you can also walk, it should take you less than half an hour). Although you're at four blocs from Venice beach we could easily park our car in the street in front of the apartment. The apartment was very well equipped and nicely decorated. We came with our two girls, 9 and 14 years old. The pullout sofa bed was a bit small for them both (my 14 years old daughter is almost my size), so the only thing you should be careful with is the size of the additional sofa bed. For two adults it is quite small, for two young children it is perfect. We didn't meet Pierre but he responded almost immediately to all my messages, so he was easy to communicate with and very helpful. I definitely recommend !
