The location was great for our purposes as we were visiting family that lives near by. We arrived by car and missed the address on the first pass then got lost in a whole maze of very narrow streets. We had to get down the hill and start all over. Parking is a problem in the area. Tim does provide parking for an extra $15 per night.
There is a security gate with an intercom but we did not know the access code so our first attempt at contact went awry. We finally were able to make contact via phone and Irving met us at the gate to let us in and introduce us to the facility.
The view of the downtown area of Hollywood is impressive. Our room was clean, neat and in order. The garden area in the back is very surprising as real estate would seem to be at a premium in this area.
Irving did point out that there was someone in the room across from the kitchen/lounge area. We were a little surprised to find we were sharing the kitchen with 7 others in the morning. However it all worked out.
The area is quite quiet and as it is off some very narrow winding streets there was little through traffic. Our room was spacious with self contained bathroom and separate access to the outside.
