We had a good stay at Gabe's place. The room and the house itself were clean, the bed was comfy. There also were a couple of guests in other rooms, but they never bother us. Kitchen is fully equipped, there is complimentary coffee and tea.
Note: be prepared that the room is small - good for sleeping, not for spending a lot of time in it. There are barking dogs in the neiboring house - if you sleep light it could be a problem.
All in all we would recommend Gabe's place for a short term stay in LA.
