The location of the apartment is hard to beat; the beach is just down the block. Venice can get a little crazy at night around the beach but we did not have any issues. The parking tip for the garage on Navy was great. We just left the car there for the weekend. Both Main Street and Abbott Kinney are just a short walk away which was terrific. The apartment was a bit smaller than I expected but overall functional. The big table on the deck was great for BBQs. We also really liked the Sonos speakers which we connected to. Drew was very quick to communicate with us when we had issues finding the right door (it's the one on the deck, not the side of the building :)) and also connected us with a neighbor who stopped by to greet us.
