What others have said about this B&B is relatively accurate - it seems like a cash only operation. The room is literally a back room in the house, which they have blocked off from the rest of the house and made in to a B&B. To get to it you go in to their backyard and enter a back door.

With that in mind, it felt a lot like staying with friends, without feeling obligated to hang out with them. Nothing fancy, but everything works. You can hear the family through the thin walls, so I am sure they can hear you as well. The shower was flip flop worthy, but overall the bathroom was clean. The bed was quite comfortable; I slept well.

We returned from dinner late in the evening, and noticed that there was no outside light to lead us to the back of the house. Given that we were unfamiliar with the neighborhood, or landscaping for that matter, it would have been useful.

Ecaterina serves breakfast, and it was good. She was also, in general, a kind and unobstrusive host. Good location, steps from Melrose. If you want to spend a day wandering around Melrose shopping for hipster t-shirts and shoes, and are not picky about accomodations, this is definitely a good place to land.

We stayed at this B&B for 4 days during our summer vacation in California, and would go back there anytime again.
The B&B is in West Hollywood within walking distance of Hollywood and Sunset Boulevard.
The rooms are spotless and spacious with TV and air-conditioning.
The hostess Ecaterina is a very welcoming and helpful with planning activities. She made us feel at home straight away.
Breakfast is plenty and delicious.
Ecaterina provided us with a permit to park our rented car, and we never had problems finding a space right in front of the house.
In contrast to all other places we crashed, we didn't have to pay until the end of our stay, and we had to pay exactly the amount that was agreed upon beforehand by mail and was noted on the B&B's website. So, no unpleasant surprises there either.
All in all, considering our experiences, a highly recommendable, and not too pricey place to stay when in LA.

Ecaterina's B&B is a great place to stay in while in LA. My boyfriend and I spent 2 nights there in late August. The rooms were nice and clean. We had a private bathroom, which seemed pretty clean too. Ecaterina's and her husband were very friendly and helpful in giving us suggestions of how to spend the short time we had in LA.
The breakfast was very good. The second morning we had to leave very early as our flight was in the morning and Ecaterina was so nice to prepare breakfast for us at 6 am.

Overall it was a great experience. I would definitely recommend this B&B.

My boyfriend and I stayed at Ecaterina's for 3 weeks while he looked for somewhere permanent to stay before starting his new job. It was very reasonable for LA. We stayed in the little guest house which is separate at the back of the house. It was a self contained little flat with bedroom/living room, bathroom and kitchenette and storage space. It was just what we needed as we didnt want to have to eat out every night and nice and private, away from the main house. Ecaterina and her husband were always very friendly and accomodating. The breakfast was very good, usually eggs but sometimes cream cheese or salmon on bagels. A good variation and substantial. We were in easy access to main routes by bus on Melrose.

We enjoyed staying there and always felt safe in that area, which you cannot say for a lot of the areas, especially if they are touristy.

Would definitely recommend to anyone.
