Good place for the money. If you are just looking for a quiet place to lay you head down after a day exploring Santa Monica and Venice Beach than this is perfect. Literally a half block away from sand, Main Street, and even a short walk to Abbot Kinney Boulevard (a neato trendy strip with shops, coffee, and eateries). However, If you want something a bit more modern and updated than look elsewhere.....i think value over aesthetics rules here. Everything you need but has it’s issues. The beds are not comfortable and one is tucked in a stairwell (very weird). The listing says it can handle 9 but i would say anything over 5 and someone is having a tough night. Would have loved to sit outside on the patio more. The table on the front porch is a bit big for the space making it impossible to sit around and the abundance of bikes (and other stuff) in the front yard is a bit much (could be a lovely garden area) but very cluttered. Not that this is the owners fault, but the homelessness problem in Venice is OUT OF HAND. I’ve never seen anything like it and I’m from Philadelphia. Kinda ruins the vibe when all you smell is urine everywhere you walk...but it’s Venice...right?! Overall not a bad place but not great.
