It is a great location when staying in Venice beach. You are close to everything, few minutes walking to the beach, few minutes to the street with shops and restaurants and you are in a residential area. It is nice to have a garden to sit in. There is another house where other guests can stay and you share the garden but that was for us no problem. The apartment is very nice and perfect for a couple, everything what you need is there and enough space. Also it is a good place to stay to explore other area's as LA, Santa Monica etc. Uber works perfectly and it is nice to rent some bikes to go along the coast.
