Bec is a really warm and welcoming host with lots of experience. Check in is easy. The room is very clean and the bed is super comfortable. IHOB (International House of Bec) is a comfortable funky place to crash while exploring L.A.. Lots of cereal options for breakfast, with tea and coffee. For those wanting hot breakfast, there are so many options in L.A. While no location in L.A. could be near EVERYTHING, IHOB is centrally and conveniently located to all the places you might want to see. We had a refrigerator in our room, which was really convenient and appreciated. Room comes with a sound machine and two extra sleeping surfaces in addition to the queen bed. While we stayed at IHOBLA, the household and neighborhood were very quiet.
