I wouldn't be more satisfied with my first ever Airbnb experience. Mary was absolutely kind and patient both after and during my trip, having everything well explained, and also complimenting with tips and advices which helped to improve my trip.

Related with the room, everything was in order and much better than I expected (the compliment earplugs to avoid the noise from the street was a nice touch).

I'd definitely recommend this as an option for the convenience that is having both Hollywood/Vine metro station and FlyAway bus stop (both no longer than a 5 minute walk). That really helped me to move around L.A. without worrying a long return (for example, I managed to return late night from Dodger Stadium to the closest metro station just a couple blocks away).

I couldn't reach Mary at my arrival but the lady who assists the place was very kind to help me with my room. I did know Mary right at the check out, she's a really nice person and the luggage room was definitely a plus, due my return flight was scheduled 12 hours later, giving me plenty of time to go around a few more hours on the city before going back to LAX (I've even got time to attend Jimmy Kimmel's show, lol).

So, if you want an alternative with the same schedule freedom than you get in an hotel, plus a privileged location at Hollywood, Mary's place is definitely your best option.
