The space Tucked away in the local Venice original garden style backyard of our Spanish Style home, this 700 sqft. fully furnished one bedroom guest house/apartment was built on the ground floor as part of our major addition to the property.

This is an entire-home rental, and guests have use of all interior spaces and the guest house patio during their reservation. To keep the property looking its best, routine exterior maintenance may occasionally take place during your stay. This primarily consists of our landscaper/gardener, who typically visits on Saturday mornings to maintain the landscaping and guest patio by sweeping, and keeping the outdoor areas clean and well maintained. Maintenance on the patio is VERY brief—typically lasting less than a minute—and is limited exclusively to the exterior portions of the property. No one will enter the unit during your stay unless requested by you or in the event of an emergency. Whenever practical, we will try to provide advance notice of any scheduled exterior maintenance. Our goal is to keep the property in excellent condition while minimizing any disruption to your stay. Anything else you forgot to pack, just ask, we usually have those little extras. Guest access GETTING TO THE UNIT: From LAX airport, we are a short cab ride away. Just 5 miles (15 minutes). By taxi or Uber/Lyft it should cost somewhere between $25-$30 plus tip. Once booked, about a week before arrival, you will receive a link to our welcome packet with all of the check-in and other rental details needed. If you would like it sent to you sooner, just ask. Other things to note We want to make your stay fun, easy and affordable. We have 2 bikes (old beach cruisers - nothing fancy) for our guests so they can tour the town without having to worry about renting a car or paying for parking. We also have a beginners foam surfboard for those of you that want to hop in the waves and try surfing like the locals. Registration Details HSR19-004154

Very nice peaceful place. Patrick was very friendly, accommodating and checked to see if we needed anything.

Great location …very quiet, very private and close to wonderful restaurants! Loved the bed and private patio!

I truly enjoyed my 2 weeks as Patrick’s guest. The house is beautifully decorated, spacious, and Patrick provided plenty of linens and toiletries for my stay. The ceiling fan in the bedroom and the additional fan in the living room/kitchen sufficiently cooled the house as LA was in the midst of a sweltering heat wave when I first arrived. The bed was sooo comfortable, and it was peaceful at night even with the windows open. Lincoln Boulevard is just 2 blocks away, and there is an incredible coffee shop (Superba) easily walkable from the house. Check in and checkout were painless. Since I was primarily there to spend time with a new grandbaby and visit family, I’m looking forward to future stays at Patrick’s wonderful house!

Nice private space to stay in for a night! The bikes were a killer addition to booking this space. No AC so I would avoid in the peak summer months, personally.

This was our second time staying at Patrick’s place, and once again we had a great stay. It’s always a good sign when you find somewhere you’re happy to come back to, and Patrick’s accommodation is exactly that.

Everything was pretty good. The place, the cleanliness and easy to find but the only thing is that place does not have A/C. If weather is pretty hot, it can be a little bit uncomfortable.
