The Redbury
Beautiful decor, not your average hotel room, or hotel for that matter. Felt like I was in a friend's loft rather than a rental. This industrial high-ceiling room houses a kitchen, a balcony, and there is even a record player. Prices of the rooms are on the high side, but if you have AAA I suggest taking advantage of that discount. It is on the Hollywood strip, walking distance to many bars, restaurants, and the Pantages Theatre. The staff was very friendly and helpful. Downstairs you'll find the restaurant Cleo and a bar called The Library, both of which I did not take advantage of but heard a great many things about. The only thing missing here is a swimming pool.
