Valerie was the consummate host - super nice and accomodating, available when needed, but non-obtrusive. The accommodations are absolutely perfect - peaceful, clean and spacious room in a lovely house, but with a separate entrance, backyard patio and en suite bathroom (with an AMAZING shower). The neighborhood is beautiful, quiet and in close proximity to all of the hot spots in Venice and Marina del Rey. And there is a bike for use, which is the perfect way to explore. The ideal AirBnB, could not come with a higher recommendation.
