Cheaper than anywhere else we looked in the area and okay for a short stay where you're going to be out and about all day and just there to sleep. Fairly long, hot walk to Venice Beach - Lyft is your friend if you're holidaying with children. Nothing very close in terms of takeaways or supermarket as we discovered the night we arrived and a pretty unsavoury section en route to nearest food so advised to be cautious. If you're not expecting high end accommodation and are more focused on the experiences while you're out and about then you'll be happy here - comfy beds and pillows to rest well after each day's adventure - and the host was friendly and light touch.
