My wife and I loved staying here for just over a month.
The place is a very short walk to the beach ( about 3 minutes), and we went every single day at least once. The neighborhood is also very nice in that it is just a short walk from things in Venice but that it is quiet at nights.
The place is also an extremely good value for the amount of space and the location, and we were both able to work remotely just fine.
The largest cons with the place are that it can get a bit dusty, but the real challenge was keeping the home cool. The home does not have AC (he does provide a large cooling fan but it can only cool about half a room). Some of the windows in the home do not have vents, and we found that when we tied to keep these windows open to cool down the place it would let flies and mosquitoes in the home which was a difficult trade off.
Overall I would definitely recommend this place, especially if you want to enjoy beach life in LA!
