This is a repeat of my review below, since it was an extension of the same trip. Short version: Gio is an A+ guy and has an easy, comfortable place to stay!

Gio is an extraordinarily wonderful host and guy. He could not have been more accommodating during my long stay - whatever I needed (a little laundry detergent, a couple batteries, a different bedsheet, something changed or adjusted) he was more than happy to provide whenever it was possible. He was extremely accessible and responsive whenever I had any questions. Meanwhile, he's a very cool guy with a wide-ranging background, and it was a pleasure hanging out with him at down moments in the evenings -- we just had a ton of fun together! I can't more highly recommend Gio's as a place to stay if you're coming through Westwood.
