This was our first ever Airbnb experience, we were very new to the idea of not staying in a hotel, and we have to say it was absolutely perfect. The apartment was VERY spacious, SUPER clean, and VERY well located in Venice Beach. Unfortunately we never got to meet out hosts during our stay, but the check in and check out was super easy to do on our own. The little kitchen was very convenience with a good sized fridge and coffee maker and kettle and microwave and stove top. Everything we needed to make a bit of breakfast every day was found in the kitchen.
The neighbor hood is also super quiet and the apartment is only a very short walk from both Abbott Kinney - loads of restaurants and bars there - and the beach, we used their bikes to cycle all the way to Santa Monica pier. Just around the corner is the Rose Cafe on Rose- HIGHLY recommend going there for dinner.
Thank you to our hosts for the lovely apartment and we can only hope that all our future Airbnb experiences will be as fantastic as this one.
