Alex is very much the most super of all superhosts; friendly, accomodating and damn fast on the communication front which was both superb and refreshing! A luxurious pad with all ammenities incl filter coffee (win!). Clean, spacious and homely. Great location, only a 5min walk to the beach and a strip of shops + eateries (go to The Cows End for coffee and breakfast!). Quiet neighbourhood and always safe no matter what time of day/night; not far from muscle beach but separated from its hustle and bustle. All the comforts of home incl wifi and parking spot if you need it. Simple entry and exit process. Less than 30min to santa monica (10min walk + 20min gentle Metro bike ride). I had a wonderful stay and would not hesitate to get in contact with Alex again should i be staying in the Venice beach area. Absolute gem of a find!!
