The place was just as described and just as it looks in the pics if not better. M wasn't able to greet us in person, but she provided step by step guidance over the phone with no issues at all.
The little cottage is very cute and has all the accommodations that one would need, kitchen, fridge and even a stove if you decide to cook.
the location was perfect, walking distance from Venice Beach, whole foods and a main street in case you need to take public transportation.
The neighborhood is nice and quite, parking is not hard to find either.
We enjoyed our stay at M's place. Definitely recommend staying here!
