This place is great and Rita is an awesome host. We rented the *** room for a price that is impossible to find in the Hollywood area. Rita takes good care of her wonderful house and always makes sure that the residents are equipped with all they need. While staying there, we had a medical emergency and she was wonderful in helping us. She called many doctors to make sure that we get the best service possible and provided great home remedies that truly helped a lot. Also, our initial booking was for a week, but because of the emergency we asked her to extend our stay and she was flexible with it.

An important note that we did not know about before renting here is that there are restrictions in using both the shared kitchen and bathroom. Although it is mentioned in the guidebook that there are breakfast and dinner hours, it was not clear to us that the kitchen can only be used during these hours. We thought this is similar to hotels services where they provide the meals within these hours. It turned out that we could only use the kitchen during these hours. This, of course, makes it difficult for travelers who do not want to eat out a lot. And because the bathroom is shared, no showers are allowed after 9 pm. Of course, even if we had known these things before we would still stay here. We are surely happy that we chose this place during our visit to LA.
