Julie's place was newly listed when I first looked it up. So new, in fact, that it didn't even have photos listed. But once she sent them I knew I'd love the openness and light that her apartment offered. Indeed it was what I hoped and it is clear the apartment reflects the openness and light of the heart of he host.
I had a delightful stay. Julie is an extraordinarily gracious host. She was generous, fun and kind. I really loved my stay and was so grateful to Julie.
I had to work early mornings and long days and the room offered the privacy and desk I needed to do so. Julie was sweet enough to prep everything I needed for coffee.
The neighborhood was nice and safe.
I will definitely look Julie up when I'm back in Santa Monica. Great option for a shared room set-up.
