Jessica's place looked exactly how it was in the pictures. Her home was inviting and the room itself was very spacious. The queen sized bed was VERY relaxing and comfortable to sleep on, so much so that it made it hard to get up in the morning. Jessica's house was a 10 min walk to the bus stops and a 5 min walk to nearby grocery stores (CVS, Whole Foods, and a 99 cents store). It was also conveniently located near the beach and Abbot Kinney Blvd. We rented 2 bikes from Jessica ($10 per person per day) and although they were a bit old, they did its job. It was only a 10 min bike ride to the Venice boardwalk.
Jessica herself was very responsive and communicated clearly on how to check ourselves in. She was very nice and helpful! She also has the cutest dog named Blue who greeted us at check in and a lovely cat named Lulu who was our roommate.
If we find ourselves at Venice beach again, we will definitely be staying at Jessica's again!
