Angela's place was perfect for my short trip to California. My biggest concern initially was disturbing anyone when I was going in or out from the house, even though it was separate from the main house. Luckily, I was able to come and go at all hours without bothering anybody. It's a quick drive from the airport, maybe 20 minutes. Even quicker to the beach, roughly ten to venice beach. This was the last half of my birthday trip and just needed to relax, and that was definitely accomplished. Met some nice locals when I went out, who showed me some nice bars and such with great decor around. I had my birthday dinner at BOA steakhouse, near santa Monica pier, maybe 15 minutes away, which has the best service I've ever experienced and great food. Third st promenade, venice beach, and Santa monica pier all had great street performers, I snapped a few vids and pix of their social media and performances. The food around the area was great, I was surprised most places close by 2 am though. Im from DC and my bar doesnt even close until 3-5am depending on the night lol.
TLDR; Overall great stay, great location. Unfortunately didnt get to meet Angela until I was leaving but she's the sweetest host I've ever had the pleasure of meeting. I'd definitely book with her again for my next trip to the area.
