Had a very nice time at Mary's. Room was clean, private and comfortable. There were other people staying there but it felt like I was the only one there and never felt uncomfortable . Instructions for check in and for room rules were clear. Mary was there when I checked in and was very friendly, helpful and accommodating. Location is close to subway and right off Hollywood Blvd so very convenient for getting around. As stated on listing, people hanging outside in the alley at night can be a bit noisy but never had any issues and didn't really bother me since it wasn't going till late at night and never woke me up. There's a farmers market on Sunday's at the end of the road so that was nice! Overall I enjoyed my private room on my first LA trip. Thanks Mary!
