We had a great stay at Charles’s place in Venice. The location is amazing. Very walkable to Rose and Abbott Kinney and not too far from the beach. The house has a really amazing yard with a gas fire pit, grill, deck with seating and nice landscaping. The outdoors was definitely the highlight of the house and we used it every day. We were a couple, a seven-month-old baby, and in-laws staying at the house. The in-laws stayed in the guest house so our baby could have his own room for naps and bedtime and so we could have a little separation from the in laws. The one drawback is that the back house is not ideal for a couple to stay if they want to share a bed. There are two trundle beds, one of them was broken and the other one had a pull out mattress with bedding on it that looked like it hadn’t been washed in months. If you have older kids or young adults the guest house would work fine but the sleeping arrangement back there was not good for an elderly couple who need more comfortable beds. Other than that, the layout worked really well for us, communication was great and we had a lovely stay!
