The location of this apartment is everything! Definitely a no frills stay but has all of the basics you could need for a laid back beach vacation. 30 second walk to the beach, very safe area, & away from the loud action in Venice beach. Short walk to the Whaler restaurant which had great fish tacos and togo margaritas to enjoy on the beach. Be aware the unit does not have air conditioning (it has some small plug in fans but they were very dusty so we did not use them but they were not AC anyways), and doesn’t get a great cross breeze so it was pretty toasty at night even with window open (first week of April, temp low 60s) . Overall great bang for your buck and can’t beat the location. Would stay here again.
