Great apartment and great location. We had an enjoyable week and the proximity to Venice Beach and the boardwalk are great. Apartment is roomy and has plenty of windows and ventilation. Rooftop deck was also fun althought the weather was still quite cool in the evening so we didn't use it as much as we might. Overall i would highly recommend the apartment and the location. The only point I would note is that their is a restriction on the number of people in the apartment at all times so if you are visiting friends in LA this may not work for you.
