We have stayed in Santa Monica / Venice before and this is by far the best Airbnb - it’s exactly as in the photos. Super clean, great location, safe building and neighborhood. It’s nice to be close but not right in the noisy mix of Venice. 10-15 min drive to everything - boardwalk, promenade, restaurants, Abbot Kinney etc. - the parking spot is really nice after a long day of being out. The apartment was the perfect size for our family to spend the week. Hosts were attentive and easy to communicate with, and left wine and chocolate for us. Highly recommend!
