I had to book at the last minute because my usual place was unavailable. Very pleased with Oxy's place, clean newly renovated and very comfortable. Great location. Building is quiet but there is street traffic during the daytime and a school across the street so afternoons can be a bit loud. I used to live in the neighborhood and would rate the sound level as average. Hollywood is not a quiet place and no matter where you stay be sure to bring earplugs in case! I'm in Hollywood a lot and will be back!
