The apartment is completely renovated and clean. The location is great! You are walking distance to Venice beach, coffee shops, restaurants, bars, and shopping. The only negative is it is very noisy! You hear all of the street noise and anything going on with the neighbors. One neighbor came home at 2am and was loud until 3:30am with music and partying. You can hear neighbors talking, coughing, or anything. Bring your ear plugs for sure!!
