I stayed at Susan's place for 3 months during the summer while I completed an internship nearby. Susan was a wonderful host. She was always responsive to any needs and made sure the room had amenities that I requested for my extended stay. Susan regularly checked in with me and made sure I was comfortable. She was an absolutely wonderful housemate and companion The house was quite charming, too. There are plenty of places to sit and enjoy the outside garden, even from the living room window. I didn't have the opportunity to use the kitchen, which was cozy but spacious enough to cook in. The location was prime. You're paying to be in Venice, but it's worth the 5 minute walk to Abbot Kinney and 15 minute walk to the beach and boardwalks. I was walking distance from my office as well, and that made enjoying the LA sun that much easier and more enjoyable. Susan's cats are the sweetest cats you'll ever meet and added to the charm of the space. This is a fantastic place to live, a quiet place to come home to and relax. I would especially recommend this to anyone looking for a long-term stay. Thank you, Susan!!
