Patrick was a warm, welcoming host who is very organised. He sent me a welcome packet several days in advance of my arrival. When I arrived, he gave a thorough walkthrough of the place and summarized the cool places to see in Venice Beach.

The "garagement" itself was super clean, well-appointed, and stylishly decorated. Although the bathroom is separate from the studio, it's only a few paces away. Regarding parking, I had no problem finding a spot on the street.

The neighborhood was quiet with lovely historic homes. A minute's walk from the studio is one of the main streets of Venice, with plenty of interesting small businesses: boutiques, vintage shops, etc.

I, thoroughly, enjoyed my stay at the Venice Beach "garagement." I look forward to staying there again in the future!
