Absolutely loved my stay at the Roost! My wife and I came for 4 days to attend a wedding in Santa Monica but we prefer the funky hip vibe of Venice. The Roost was perfect! Big open airy space with lots of light. All the amenities you need (wifi, kitchen, bathroom, great patio space) There was a flatscreen with Netflix and chromecast. Kirk was great, he was there setting up when we arrived gave us a quick and easy run down (door has lock code so you don't have to worry about keys) and even gave us the padlock codes for us to use his beach cruisers. Awesome backyard patio space too. There is a great French Market down the road and it is an easy walk to all the shops and Restaurants at Abbot Kinney. Took the bikes down to the beach daily and an Uber everywhere else (8$ to santa Monica, $10-$15 to LAX) I can't recommend this place enough. Kirk offered to help us out and provide us with any suggestions we might need but we were very content to go it on our own. Nice knowing someone was there if you needed them but ultimately it was like we were visiting our own California vacation house. Thanks Kirk, one of the better weekends we've had in a long time, hope to come back soon!
