George's place is very clean, mostly quiet (with one major exception during our stay) and convenient to west LA including UCLA. Having a parking place inside the gate was handy, though very difficult to manouver into, even with a Prius. There's a bagel place with good coffee an easy walk away and open early and several other decent options for meals nearby. We liked Cafe 50s and En Sushi. We did find the decor pretty sterile and there was no place to sit except uncomfortable high stools or the bed and one desk chair. This place would be better for one student than for two 60+ travellers. The full size fridge would be handy but space and equipment to really cook anything is very limited -- only sink is a bathroom sink, shared with the bathroom (obvious from the pictures, but I didn't really think that through beforehand -- it's a little weird!) We didn't meet George and were never clear who we were talking to on the phone -- George or a manager. That person was helpful, but the stay was completely impersonal -- don't expect to get to know your host if you stay here. We didn't need to -- that wasn't a problem. The shower was excellent but needs a place to put soap and hang washrag. The bed has a memory foam mattress or mattress top. The AC was a little noisy--they all are!-- but very effective on the hot summer days we were there. There is no way to lock the windows and the door locks seem pretty weak -- light shows all around the door from the hall, but the courtyard is locked so security from the outside is good. Other people we met from the building in brief encounters were very pleasant. Except for one guy who returned from an unhappy event and bellowed about it for half an hour one night, it was quiet. The pool looked clean and inviting, but we just didn't have time to hang out there. We never saw or heard anyone in it, even on the weekend.
