Mary's place was just what we needed and at a reasonable price. My friend and I were visiting Universal Studios and Mary's place was just less than 15 mins away. The place is located in alley type of street which seemed weird at first but it wasn't bad at all. The bathrooms were kept clean and accessible and we hardly ran into any other guest there. Since it is located right by Hollywood blvd it does get noisy at night but it was manageable. The only thing is the parking situation, there isn't assigned parking available and it can get a little tricky parking on the street however there was an overnight parking area that was right next to the place and charged 20$ a night, which we did and they were pretty nice. I would definitely stay there again!
