My wife and I were the first hosts at this apartment and didn't know exactly what to expect, but we have to say the place is absolutely beautiful!!! It is extremely well decorated and you can see Mike's attention to detail on every corner, exactly like in the pictures.
Communication and Check-in was easy. The place was sparkling clean, everything brand new and all you could need to have a great stay (we stayed for a month and a half).
Location is unbeatable! Quiet neighborhood and ten minutes walk to Venice beach, Abbott Kinney and Mother's beach / Marina del Rey. Food markets and restaurants at walking distance, and the place is literally one block away of the Canals and a Farmer's market (every Friday).
We were afraid about the Venice homeless situation, which is a real problem, but not in this particular area. We felt safe at all times and never had any issue.
We will 100% come back to this place next time we are in LA.
