We had a wonderful stay at Mary's place! We got there late, so I had to text Mary and ask her where to park. She sent me detailed directions with a picture of the parking place which was very helpful. The room was spotless and very nice. The bed was really comfortable and I appreciated the extra blankets and towels. I had some trouble sleeping due to the outside noise and a car alarm that went off, but my husband slept like a baby! Also, the noise is only due to being so central, you are steps away from all the action, so that's what you sign up for. I wouldn't trade it because I loved being so close to hollywood blvd. We also enjoyed being steps away from the farmers market on Sunday morning. I also felt very safe at Mary's. The shower was lovely and was right outside our door. We would definitely stay here again and recommend it to anyone!
