The hostel is very close to the Walk of fame! Just a few minutes to walk.
Public Parking garages are easily found nearby so if you arrive by rental car you will probably have no trouble finding a place for it. Though we did not meet Mary during our stay, communication was very easy and she respond very quickly.
Shared bathrooms and shared kitchen worked out fine.
Since there are some clubs very close, it can be a bit loud in the night - but earplugs are provided! One small flaw: the building is heating up all day, but at least the bedroom was equipped with an AC!
