It can be hard to find an ok priced place walking distance to the Venice boardwalk. It’s about a 15 min walk to the beach. However the cons far out weigh the pros and I wish I would have paid $50 a night more and booked a nice place.
This apartment complex is the most inconvenient place I’ve ever stayed at. You can’t get in OR OUT without the key and sensor. It will take 10 minutes from when you enter the building to when you actually get to the room. You’ll get trapped in areas - including the dark, old and unsafe parking garage. It will be a headache for delivery folks to find you.
As for the unit itself, we paid for a two bathroom unit. And one of the bathroom toilets - after we peed in it once and tried to flush it - did not work. We notified the host on the morning of day two. He did not send anyone to fix it until 9pm of the night we left, after my kids were in bed. The tub in this bathroom was also clogged so we couldnt use it either. The screen door popped off as soon as we opened it. There are only enough towels for two people in the unit. The place is dirty. It’s gross and dumpy.
