Barbara's place is fantastic. Really well laid out, well appointed kitchen and great use of all spaces in the apartment. Plenty of storage place and great books/ guides/ maps provided. She has really paid attention to detail in this lovely little space. It is perfectly located for Venice Beach/ Santa Monica ( friends who live in LA were gobsmacked at where I was staying), it is the PERFECT base from which to explore this part of LA. I just wish I could have stayed there longer! Barbara's communication was top notch - both before and during the stay. Her suggested eating/dining/shopping recommendations were all excellent. The home is a proper little apartment with its own private entry, so perfect for those Air BnB peeps who like their privacy. Would recommend a trip to Barbara's place to anyone ( and the bed really is as comfy as folks all say!)
