Steve and Maureen are fabulous hosts (very communicative and flexible) and their studio was a great place to stay by the Venice area! It’s about a 20 minute walk to Abbot Kinney and another 20 minutes from there to get to the beach - great location. Their studio is directly behind their own home, but completely private. It was clean, tidy, and was the perfect size for two. I wish we had more time to take advantage of the outdoor patio. Thank you both for your hospitality!
