This is a cute little red brick building in the middle of Hollywood's club district. It's basically a hostel with a number of rooms, each slightly different. I thought Room 16 was pretty nice, probably one of the quietest rooms in the building. There were two clean bathrooms on the second floor where I stayed, with a kitchenette. The teabags and coffee station was a definite plus!
Mary is a very good communicator, and even though I never met her, it was easy to reach her by message. The instructions were very clear and thorough.
Not gonna lie... as Mary warns in the listing, the building is literally surrounded by clubs - BUT bring good quality earplugs and turn on your AC full blast and it's not so bad. I did only stay Sunday and Monday, though, so YMMV.
The neighborhood's a little seedy... Hollywood Blvd is tarnished by street people on every block, but they don't really seem to bother anyone. I only went in and out by daylight so I wouldn't know about a weekend night.
The value for the money was very good.
