I spent with my wife two nights in Caroline's apartment. That was a part of our 4 week long holidays in California. The apartment itself is quite nice and mostly clean. Although it is close to the ocean we don't think this is a perfect spot for a holidays. Car is very useful so you can easily get to more attractive beaches (e.g. Hermosa Beach) shops and restaurants.
Unfortunately we had some disagreements with Caroline and problems with communication which had spoiled our moods for next few days of our holidays.

Few things to notice:
- small beach that you can admire out of the windows during the day is also quite noisy in the late evening (people make parties there)
- be aware that you need to pay for everything in the fridge so better buy your stuff earlier
- Caroline makes a list of house rules even for very small details like 'fold toilet paper into triangle on the end at check out' - stick to it in 100% to avoid problems later.
