As far as location goes this is about as good as it gets. The neighbourhood is really quiet and relaxed with a friendly atmosphere, while being very close to both Venice beach as well as major roads leading to attractions such as the Getty Centre etc. The place is cute, private, and comfortable, and having amenities like a dishwasher, full oven, and washer/dryer was great. That being said the kitchen itself could use some things like an actual working can opener and sheet pans for cooking in the oven to make it really live up to its potential. Having a coffee maker and toaster oven was awesome however and overall it was a great experience. The hosts were quick to respond to any concerns and communicated well. I would recommend staying here if you come to Venice!
