We had a lovely stay. The area was really pleasant, a lot to see and do with many conveniences close by in the way of shops/supermarkets and places to eat.
The marina was under a 10 minute walk away, and Venice beach was about a 20/25 minute walk.
Sonjia and Adam were fab hosts, they were both brimming with great advice about the area and were very accommodating.
Parking was ideal, there was plenty of spaces on the roadside and it was nice for Adam to knock and let us know that in the US you have to park your car in the direction of the traffic flow, else you may get a ticket.
Thanks guys!
