Cute, clean studio apartment walking distance to Venice Beach. There is a binder on the coffee table with instructions and information about the area including restaurants and thing to do. We went to a recommended restaurant (Gjusta) and had a great time. House rules are reasonable and what any polite houseguest would follow. The host provided coffee, water, shampoo and soap, which was much appreciated. We walked to whole foods and shopping / restaurants on Abbott Kinney and Rose avenue. Overall great experience.
