I booked Michael and Julie's place to film a few scenes of a film project and I also stayed there as a guest for four days. As other guests have brought up, Michael, the host, is extremely rude in his communication. He was often times combative and ironic, not at all what I expect from someone providing a service in hospitality. Whenever I contacted him with a request or a question, always in a polite and respectful manner, he'd reply somewhat annoyed or unjustifiably rude. I did not interact with Julie.
The house is spacious and the neighborhood is quiet. Paint is pealing off the walls in a few spots, the outside furniture had green mold on the cushions and bed covers were dusty making people allergic. Also worth mentioning that while the pool is heated, Michael charges a ten dollars/hr heating fee.
Honestly, for the price you pay for this listing, you can get a nicer place and a better and more respectful treatment in LA. Dealing with Michael as a host made for a stressful stay.
