The place was a great location, lots of near by shops to eat, drink, window shop etc. Abbot Kinney is also super close which was nice to bike to and enjoy the laid-back scene with lots of coffee and ice cream shops to top it all off.. Lincoln blvd was definitely not our favorite street in Venice, but we biked along the side streets which were beautiful. The ocean was a 10-15 minute bike ride away, the boardwalk easily accessible.
The place itself had everything we needed for our trip, hair dryer, mini fridge, coffee, tv with netflix, movies, safe, etc.
It was raining the entire time I was there so the garage was a little chilly, maybe a spare blanket would be beneficial. :)
The bikes were a life saver, without them it would have been a lot more difficult to get around.
Overall, great place, great location, has everything you need. Recommended.
