I stayed in this room on 16 Clubhouse Ave for about two months from the end of November to the end of January 2021.
I could hear the sound of the ocean even when I was in my room, which was very comforting. I also rented a parking lot. It's right in front of this building. The parking lot is $300 per month, which is expensive, but considering the location, the price is reasonable.
There is no work desk in this room, so I would not recommend trying to study or work in this room. The refrigerator is small, so even those who like to cook may have a hard time. A nearby coffee shop is recommended. The beach is just a short walk away, which makes the inconvenience a little less of an issue.
I left my keys in the room once and locked myself out, but the host was quick to respond. There are people in the same building who can help you.
By the way, just before that, I also stayed in an apartment at 26 Breeze Ave owned by the same host from the end of August to the end of November 2021. This room is more expensive and larger. This apartment is on the 3rd floor and there is no elevator, so it was a bit hard when you had to carry a lot of baggage. However, that room was more spacious and very nice.
Alba and Mike were quick to help us when I didn't find a hairdryer or other supplies, or when parking permits were not handed out.
I think they are very great hosts.
Venice Beach is a busy tourist area, but I have never felt unsafe there. I was a female and lived alone.
I took a walk on the beach every morning and every evening. I was able to lose weight because of it.
I was a lazy person, however, this location was so wonderful and beautiful that you can't help but take a walk on the beach. You can see a lot of cute dogs on the beach. The sunsets over the ocean are especially beautiful.
I hope I could come back to Venice someday.
