I stayed at George's place for the month of October, and was very pleased with the apartment and neighborhood. The room was a great size , and while it was on a busy street, the noise wasn't too bad. I didn't have a car with me, but there was a bus stop just outside the front door, and I was able to walk to groceries and restaurants (about 15 minutes walk). Very easy to get to DTLA, Hollywood and super close to hiking trails (like the Observatory!). George was so welcoming and provided great hospitality during my stay. It was such a nice surprise to see items from fresh linens to Halloween treats outside my door each week. Thank you George!
