The apartment was very clean, very well furnished, and perfectly situated in Venice to walk to almost everything. Loved the little outdoor sitting area. Craig was very helpful and responsive.

The apartment was clean, location so convenient, and the mattress was better than we have at home. Craig is an amazing host. He was there to help out if needed You couldn't ask for more. And yet there was more, when I got sick he offered to buy soup for my husband and me. At first I hesitated and then said yes. Craig gifted us chicken soup from The Firehouse. Hit the stop We will come again. Thanks Craig Linda and Stu

We had a very enjoyable week long stay at this cozy, private, nicely furnished downstairs unit in an older but well-maintained 4-plex with garden. Small, but perfect for two people. The building is located on a quiet residential street in a hip, urban, up-and-coming area of Venice. We loved the location - walkable to beach/boardwalk, grocery and drug stores, and restaurants and small retail places in Venice. And just a short drive into downtown Santa Monica. The owner, Craig, was very personable and extremely responsive - he not only greeted us at the unit to provide keys and explain what's what, but also offered great suggestions of local places to try and things to do. He also dropped off a few missing kitchen staples when requested, which we greatly appreciated, as we chose to prepare some meals in vs. eating out every day. Overall, we had a lovely stay and would not hesitate to recommend Craig's unit.

Craig met us upon our arrival making our transition to our new home for a week absolutely seamless. Apartment was well appointed and maintained-perfect for the two of us. The property has a private parking spot off the street which is a real plus for the area. We love the Venice/Santa Monica area and for us the location of this property was ideal. Quick walk to the beach and rented bicycles gave us access to the rest of the surrounding area. Don't miss enjoying the bike path which you can take as far north as Malibu and south of Marina Del Rey in the other direction. Restaurants in the area were wonderful, many within waking distance. We particularly enjoyed Poke-Poke for fresh Ahi Tuna on the beach and Gjelina is a fabulous deli/café one block from the apartment. Prospective renters should be aware of a sizable homeless community that is allowed to reside in front of public property one block from the apartment. This wasn't a problem for us as we know this is just part of the Venice scene. However, I point this out for prospective renters who may not be aware of the area. Wonderful stay and property. Would return in a heartbeat!
