We felt lucky to snag Marc's place for our trip. By far the nicest garage style apartment I have ever stayed in. Extremely private and quiet with a great location close to LAX and everything in Venice and Santa Monica. Awesome Linus bikes let us explore the area with ease. Parking is also available for a car downstairs in the garage next to the kitchenette which is separate from the living space upstairs. Marc did not cut corners with this space or the amenities he provides. His place will be my first choice for future trips.
