This was my first solo AIRBnB experience. I learned to -- be in communication with the owner. It is courteous to let them know when you plan on checking in. I wasn't positive of my ETA, but with some nudging I did give my status as I got closer to arriving.
Roberto gave a very warm welcome. (And as I checked out he indulged me with his music and song). Sweeeet.
Do take advantage of the coolest backyard in Venice. I did! I hung out on the hammock for a bit in the morning. An awesome sunny coastal SoCal a.m.
"Abbot Kinney" is close by. It's the IT in Venice. Talk a walk down the blvd, enjoy the sights. See and be seen.
Thank you Matt and Roberto (for my 1st AIRBnB stay).
