We've stayed in many Airbnbs in the LA area and this one was BY FAR our favorite! The location is absolutely unbeatable: less than a minute walk to the sand (and a great surf spot), a block from the canals, walkable to countless amazing coffee shops, restaurants, and boutique grocery spots. The newly-renovated unit has a comfortable bed, a dishwasher (!) and garbage disposal (!), excellent shower pressure, and enough room for two people to work remotely (if you use the dining room table as a second desk). The neighborhood is definitely lively (hello, Venice Beach characters!) but feels safe and like a nice little community. The offstreet parking is clutch, and although it's a bit tight we were always able to squeeze our Forester in :) Overall this place is absolutely excellent and will definitely book again!
