We loved staying in this little apartment. It is a studio but wasn't too cramped for my boyfriend and I who lived and worked here for a month. The apartment is right across the street from the Venice boardwalk, which was awesome. Note that it is in an older building and on the first floor, so while it's great to not have to walk up any stairs, you do hear everything that is going on in the alleyway outside the bedroom/living room windows. Note that the laundry is located on the 3rd floor and costs a couple dollars per load. Generally communication with our hosts was good - when we found something was missing from the kitchen, they eventually sent us some new measuring cups, bowls, etc. However we did have an issue getting access to our mailbox, and since we were there for a month this prevented us from accessing a package we had received weeks earlier. Someone did drop off the key right as we were checking out though so we were ultimately able to get our mail. Apart from that, we have nothing to complain about - we would definitely stay here again, primarily because the location and value for money is unbeatable!
