Michaela was extremely easy to deal with and we loved the cozy feel of her bungalow. It is a little worn, but charmingly so -- the kind of place I would have loved to rent in college! This is the first time we have stayed in Venice Beach, and we loved the proximity to the ocean and Abbott Kinney. Despite the location on the corner of Pacific Avenue, we heard almost no street noise at night... I think this is because the living area opens toward the inner courtyard. Would definitely stay there again.

As for Foxy... even my husband, a confirmed dog person, was totally charmed by her when she took her place at the foot of the bed. She was just sweet beyond words!
