Marco's studio was the most comfortable place i stayed at on my whole USA trip. The vibe there is great. Walking distance to Venice Beach and if you don't mind a stroll you can even wander as i did all the way to magic at Santa Monica Pier. Marco was away doing his creative work, but I was greeted and welcomed by his lovely parents Bill and Carmen, who made everything easy and comforting for me. I would highly recommend this place to anyone who has a sensitivity in their heart for wandering through the spectacle of all things Venice Beach, whilst having the most comfortable space to retreat back to.
