Pros:
My friend and I really enjoyed our stay at Joanna’s in Culver City.

It’s a nicely decorated apartment, and the room as a comfortable bed and its own bathroom. Joanna was great and was available for any questions we had, both in-person or via text.

There are great restaurants along Culver Blvd. It’s a quick 5 minute drive or a 20 minute walk— we did both, but the walk would likely be a lot nicer not in the middle of summer. Sony Picture Studios is nearby, which we didn’t realize; they were sold out for us, but looked like it would have been neat!

Joanna’s place is a pretty quick Uber to the beach, but she let us know that there is also an easily accessible metro stop that will take you there as well.

Cons:
As Joanna mentioned, parking is more difficult at night. We got in about 6 and it took us about a half hour to find street parking. Might take less time for those more experienced in squeezing into small spaces.

Being from Las Vegas, we take AC for granted, but learned that a lot of places in California don’t have central air. Joanna had extra fans running for us, since it was especially muggy. It was a little warm with the windows open and fans running, but not too bad. We got woken up pretty early from some noises outside, which may not have been bad during a different season with windows closed.

Overall, great for the price point we were looking at!
