I can't say enough good things about Jolie's place. We had a wonderful time staying at this adorable bungalow while we toured nearby LMU. The decor is hip with a fun, retro vibe. I loved that Jolie decorated the place with vintage finds and that you could actually purchase some of them if you fell in love -- what a clever way to keep the decorating fresh and authentic. I even got to show my teen daughter how to use a record player for the first time. :D
The location is terrific near Marina del Rey and Venice and the neighborhood feels very safe. The property is beautiful with lush plantings and enclosed by a tall fence which provides complete privacy. The carport is tiny but useful if you have a small car (our Toyota Corolla was a tight fit but worked fine). You can pull the car in, close the gate and you are all snug inside your own little compound.
The beds were comfy and the house had everything you could reasonably need. Josie even had some snacks & drinks on hand for sale if you didn't want to run to the store (and a bunch of other condiments, filtered water, coffee, etc free). Lots of stuff to watch on cable or Apple TV. The weather was really changeable while we were there and we ended up using the heat which worked great and then opening the doors later in the day to cool things off (we didn't need to use the AC). There are also cute bikes available for use but we didn't have a chance to use them.
All in all, a fabulous place to stay and feel like a local.
