This place was absolutely perfect for us. My boyfriend and I stayed here for a week while he started his new job and I looked for an apartment. You could not ask for a better place to stay in near Abbot Kinney or anywhere in Venice. The bed was so comfortable, the whole place was cool and aerated even without AC. The washer and drier were great after a day at the beach. Everything was just perfect and so comfortable. We were a 1-5 minute walk from all the best things Abbot Kinney has to offer, really right in the thick of it, and still somehow felt like we had total privacy while we were here. The palm trees and fence block you from most of the neighbors' windows and you almost make you feel like you're in the middle of nowhere. Very nice and peaceful. The first day we arrived we joked about asking Don if we could just live there instead of finding our own apartment.
Don himself was also a fantastic host. The moment we requested the place he promptly responded and gave us the rundown. We never had any issues or questions whole time we were there because he explained everything perfectly right away and left a personalized printout for us on the counter when we arrived. We ended up moving into an apt in the area and will definitely recommend this to anyone coming to visit us here!
