We had the best time staying at Teresa's place. It was located close to Venice beach and also only 5 mins (at most) from the freeway. The room was spacious and we felt right at home. Teresa was so helpful with directions and if we had a question she'd answering via text quickly! We felt safe in this neighborhood and there was plenty of street parking. We can't wait to go back to LA and hopefully this airbnb will be available.
Also, we ate at Rutt's cafe which is in walking distance of the airbnb. It is a Hawaiian cafe which serves breakfast,lunch and dinner for under 10 dollars. I highly recommend this place!
