A couple things to note:
This is a nice apartment right on Venice beach. Everything was clean and organised. On the other hand, I would not recommend this stay to anyone traveling to California. First of all, the host did not disclose ANY of the safety concerns going on in the area. We didn’t see any warnings online or on Air BnB. There was a Emergency Pedestrian Warning that was put in place before we arrived. The area has become increasingly worse and there weren’t any news articles on the matter until the day we arrived. I would HIGHLY look up the amount of increasing crime within the area. There are many homeless people that line the boardwalk near the Bnb so if anything just be aware before you book because we experienced people confronting us near the location. The host was able to communicate some of the concerns AFTER we brought it up since the situation could’ve turned potentially dangerous to the point where we had to leave. This was the only point that the host was fully communicative since we were planning shortening our stay due to the situation. We only stayed 1 night out of 4 mostly because the location can be accessed through the street which elevated our concerns as well.
