Mehran's place is great and he is very friendly and hospitable. My husband and I stayed in the Venice room, which is a bit on the small side but I still think it was a great value for the location. The view from his patio is incredible! I should note that the room can get a bit warm during the day with no AC but it was comfortable at night for sleeping, which is all we really cared about. Overall, I highly recommend staying here for that quintessential Hollywood experience.
