This place is just perfect! It's a quiet, safe area that is a quick 5 minute walk to Abbot Kinney shops and restaurants, and seconds away from the scenic Venice Canals. The place is exactly as pictured -- we felt right at home and didn't want to leave! Mike was excellent at communicating and even offered for us to extend our stay which we happily took him up on. I also ended up leaving a few things behind and he messaged me right away and allowed me to come pick them up. We will definitely try to stay here again -- great spot and host!
