Although we never (no need) met Buz, he was great with prompt, clear communications and directions, which made for an easy find and stay.
As mentioned in his discription, the building may be a bit older...but you can't find any better location & price in Venice Beach or Santa Monica area, than this quaint 1 bdrm Venice Haven.

The apartment is truly only steps to the beach & boardwalk.
Photos are true to discription.
Having 2 bathrooms in a 1 bedroom was an extra (among many) bonus.
Although we chose to eat most of our meals out, the apartment has a small, but well equipped kitchen with plenty of supplies (dishes, pots & pans, etc.) and a cute little gas oven /stove.
We also took advantage of the bikes that Buz supplies for his guests, which were wonderful for getting around to all the local cafes, restaurants and shops in Venice and Santa Monica area. Buz also supplies plenty of beach towels, toys and FREE Parking...who could ask for more :) Overall Great Stay!
We have already recommended the apartment to our friends and look forward to returning in future.

Thanks again Buz for being a Fabulous/ Super Thoughtful Host and making our 4th of July celebration most memorable.

All the Best, Cyn
