Donna's NoHo guesthouse is a great spot, a real gem, and she is is an amazing host!
Donna instantly made me feel welcome and at home. Not only did she recommend great restaurants in the city to eat at after my long day of travelling, but she arranged for her daughter to drop me off at nearby one! Then the next day, Donna took me to another nice place to eat in neighbouring Studio City.
When you're travelling alone, it's nice to have a friendly, gracious host to talk to!
I must mention that the backyard hot tub surrounded by a lush garden, was the perfect place to end each day!
And if you like animals, it's nice to have temporary pets around you, like Donna's cats and dogs. They're also very friendly!
The living space is quite nice, and spacious. It's like your own studio apartment with everything you'll need for your private stay. A comfy bed, large sofa, TV, kitchenette and bathroom with shower.
If your planning a trip to The Valley, or have a car and don't wan't to stay right in the hustle and bustle of LA, but want to be close enough to enjoy what it has to offer, then I recommend Donna's guesthouse! It's only minutes by car or Uber from Burbank, Studio City, Universal City and Hollywood.
(It's also very close to Bob Hope Airport if you're able to avoid LAX.)
