Gidy was a great host. His studio guest house is in a nice quiet neighborhood a few miles north of North Hollywood. Easy access to the freeway for the drive into town.
The unit was cozy and clean, nothing too fancy. It would benefit from newer towels and linens.
For drivers, there is a gate that you need to open manually in order to park, so keep that in mind. It wasn't a problem for me, but worth noting, especially if you're traveling solo.
