We had a wonderful stay at Dorothy's. She was a warm, informative and welcoming host, yet never intrusive on our privacy. We loved the location, loved the comfortable space! I was there with 2 friends, and we had a great time hanging out on the roof, going to the beach, to breakfast, to ice cream - all under a 5 minute walk. I even walked 20 minutes up the beach to the heart of Venice Beach one morning - stumbled across a TV show filming even. Highly recommended!
