Great place to stay for access to all Venice Beach has to offer. Dorothy is an excellent non-intrusive host, with plenty of good advice for the area. The room is very spacious and very quiet for a good sleep in a large comfortable bed. The separate bathroom is large and well equipped. The location is excellent for access to the beach and the Venice boardwalk. Drinks and nibbles on our own balcony was a nice finish to the day. Wifi worked fine. Only minor issue for some could be the 3rd floor location for those with extra heavy bags, but this was not an issue for us considering the views from the top deck and the added privacy of the apartment. What a fabulous stay.
