Connies place met all all my needs. The location was perfect for me. The buses were so easy to get to. I went to Venice Beach like 4 x’s using the bus and even walked back one night from Oakwood next to Venice Beach which was 2 miles. If you like walking, it was a nice 2.7 from Venice Beach. I live in NYC and prefer public transportation/walking and took it as much as possible but I did rent a car. I wanted the option to drive to LA and then my next part of my trip was to drive down the coast to Huntington Beach and San Diego once I left Connies. Which I did. There was no issues with finding parking at Connies place. Easy check in and out. Comfy bed, towels, robes, iron board. heaters, microwave, mini fridge, coffee maker, white noise machine, deluxe bathroom, white noise machine, tons of closet and drawer space and cute outdoor area. Love all the little touches. I didn’t use the hot tub bc there not my thing but the bathroom is amazing.
