The location here is very central... just a stones throw from Hollywood Blvd with all the noise and excitement that entails. You get a true Hollywood experience staying here. There's an acting class that meets across the street and go outside to run some of the improv situations and there were multiple postings for "Notice of filming" during my stay.
The other guests were quiet and respectful inside the house but the same cannot be said of the people passing on the street outside. If you turn on the A/C it drowns out the street noise but I feel that just limits the experience.
Also, there are plenty of food and shopping options very close by as well as laundry services.
