The apartment is in a very convenient location. Easy access straight down Venice Blvd to the beach or straight up Venice to the 405. The apartment itself is in an older building, but the inside has been updated with new floors. The kitchen and bath are older, but clean and acceptable. The furnishings and housewares were all new and in great condition. The walls are a little thin and you may occasionally hear the neighbors, but it is absolutely not an issue. The neighbors were all very quiet and respectful of each other. For the price this place is great. The one issue we had was handled professionally by the property manager.
