Honestly, if you are looking for a place to stay ANY where in LA, stay here. Not only are Barbara and Katy the most gracious hosts, the home is the most lovely I've stayed in. From the moment you walk in, you see the detail they put into this place. It adds so much to the character and experience. The pictures don't do it justice. We stayed the first half in Silver Lake, and I wish that we just stayed the whole time in this home. As for accessibility, you are close to everything that Venice has to offer. Not more than a 15 min walk (which is necessary when you ate as much coconut milk ice cream from Kippy's as I did). Always felt safe and comfortable. Would 100% book this place again.
