This was a great place to stay. The location is within walking distance to Abbott Kinney, great restaurants, street tacos on Lincoln, and cool shops. Surprisingly convenient location. We had events in century city and it took 15-25 minutes to get there, depending on traffic. Glad we stayed in Venice rather than CC. Plus Aaron is a awesome host! And the lodge is very nicely appointed and comfortable. Loved the laid back vibe. Would definitely stay again! Thanks Aaron!
