We loved staying Brandon's place. Brandon was there to meet us at the apartment and was extremely kind and professional. The apartment is very clean and well decorated. The kitchen is fully equipped, which is great if you want to cook. I liked how there were 2 bathrooms as well. The neighborhood is very quiet and you are literally around 100 ft to the beach. The area is very peaceful but you are within walking distance to Washington Blvd and Venice Beach. In my mind it was the perfect balance. The beach is unpopulated and very peaceful. Overall the stay was great. My only complaint would be that the unit does not get a ton of sunlight, however you will not be spending much time in doors with the beach just a few feet a way.
