E.J.'s loft in Venice needs no introduction. It is a 2-level loft with 3 balconies less than 1 block from a gorgeous part of Venice Beach. It's quiet, tranquil, and I could have easily stayed as long as E.J. would have allowed me to =). E.J. was traveling so he appointed Jake to handle all duties. Both Jake and E.J. were amazing in terms of communication. If I had ANY questions before or during my actual stay, they would get back to me in less than a couple minutes. I was never left confused or unsure about anything because they were so quick to get back to me. Now about the loft. You get your own parking spot in the back alley which is great because there is no traffic to contend with. You enter the loft via 2 security keypads, so you never need to have any keys with you. Both of these things made going in and out of the loft very quick and easy. Going upstairs into the loft, it is spacious, clean, and extremely well-lit. There are light switches for EVERYTHING, all the way to this weird party-vibe sparkle lighting if you feel like grooving. This loft could definitely be used for some fun parties, but for our purposes it was clean, comfortable, and felt like home. Amenities offered were plentiful. There is a hotel-style information packet with everything you need to know, from the Wi-Fi and lock passcodes, to the best places to rent bikes and get breakfast. There is a LARGE assortment of artisanal soaps and lotions in the bathroom, and we had all the towels we could have asked for. The only odd thing was that there was no shower curtain in the shower so the water would splash a little. The unit itself was also fully stocked as a home - the kitchen had all the tools necessary to cook any meal, and everything was very clean and well looked after. The upstairs with the bed was a cool and fun place to be. There are white, airy sliding curtains all around the upstairs railings, so you can put yourself in your own little cocoon when you feel the need for some extra privacy. Then you can open up those same curtains to get the awesome loft feeling of being up in your own little nest. There is also a balcony directly off of the bedroom upstairs that offers amazing views of the mountains. and a little bit of the water. The TV is adequate. E.J. has a Roku set up with Netflix, and a nice little sound system that you can hook your phone/device to play music from. If you need background sound or want to fall asleep watching something, the Netflix and/or speakers were all we needed. The TV does also have an HDMI input if you want to bring your own device. Overall I have ZERO complaints about this loft and I cannot wait to come back and visit!...
