We had booked the main floor for most of the week. it was great like having a whole house. It was quiet, comfortable and unique interiors. It was also very central to everything. Highly recommend it- Breakfast was stocked and self serve which I found very nice to go at our pace.

I stayed in the Buky House this last weekend and really loved it. The location is great and the rooms were nice and clean, plus there was wifi (bonus!). The house itself it just gorgeous. The owner was really friendly and easy to deal with. The fridge and pantry were stocked with plenty of items for a light breakfast, cereal, milk, fresh strawberries, etc. If I'm in LA again I will definitely come back to Buky House.

My husband & I visit LA several times a year because our children live there. We have never stayed in a Bed & Breakfast, only hotels. We decided to try Buky's House on a lark due to location and free street parking. Our separate suite behind the house was well appointed. From the ironed linens & comfy mattress to the fresh berries & pastries, nothing was overlooked. The gardens outside our suite were beautiful & added to our peace & quiet. We will definitely stay there again.

Buky House is uniquely identified by the welcoming lush ivy-covered exterior. Inside, the atmosphere is at once homey: living room, dining room, kitchen and private bedrooms/ba. Our bedroom/king size bed (and wifi for our laptop) was very comfy. Solid stucco walls make for great sound-proofing. But we were very disappointed in the service. Breakfast was self-serve which I prepared; I also did the dishes and, late in the day, made our bed. This isn't what we expected from a B & B, and Gail never told us. Next time in LA we'll stay where I don't have to do routine household chores...

As I drove up to the house, I was amazed to see this incredible house engulfed with a manicured blanket of ivy. Spots of beautifully architectural design of the 1920 Spanish decor painted in deep spice colors blending beautifully with the whole picture of this magnificent home. Seeing is believing! The home feels as if you have been there before or lived your past life in the 20's. Comfortable, rich and mystical was my first reaction viewing the huge living room and basically all the rest of the rooms. Greta Garbo must of lived in this house!!!!!!! Scooter was my first greeter. A beautiful LARGE cat that is the sweetest. My room was the Purple Room located next to the kitchen. I never once was disturbed by any noise from anywhere in the house as I slept comfortably on clouds...the bed was dreamy! Bathroom clean and bright. Coffee permeated the house in the morning, bagels and cereal were offered too. For the price. setting and living with ghosts of the 1920's era...how could you ask for more!!! Btw, Gail was a perfect hostess!!!! I will be back Gail......

If you like hospitality with the laid back approach then Gail Buky's is the place to stay in Los Angeles. Quiet and quaint in a great location. If we are ever in LA again we'll be back to Buky House.

Gail Buky's B&B offers a great opportunity to "live" in LA. The home is in a beautiful, safe residential area one block off of La Brea, close to some of the best eating and shopping in West Los Angeles. The home is immaculate, with a large sky-lit kitchen, backyard gardenspace and front yard balcony. Sleeping accommodations are just what a traveller desires: QUIET, great beds & linens, big windows, closets and drawers. This is really quite a home. I've stayed twice, sent my mother and a cousin who raved about it. There is a major staircase leading from the front door to the upstairs living level; if you have problems with knees or hips, be advised. A little kitty lives there, too ~ generally invisible.

I found this bed and breakfast just by chance and what a find it is!!! My husband and I were lucky enough to get the seperate, private suite off of the back yard garden. It has a little kitchenette with a coffee pot and a toaster oven. There was real coffee, real cream (not that powdered poison) and a fabulous continental breakfast. The bed was better than mine at home and the linens were ironed and devine. Who could ask for more! My computer worked great as an added bonus to us! My new home in LA!! Only one problem, this B&B only has 2 rooms. I'll have to plan ahead from now on..............

We stayed in the "garden suite" which was very private and quite large. The best surprise was a kitchenette in the room. Sheets were dreamy. The "breakfast" wasn't that important because we walked around the corner to Trader Joe's and had our own fridge. We looked at the smaller room and I would call it elegant and cozy. We will be back.

This is someone's home and it feels as if one is just accommodated. The home is lovely but one is only invited to be in one's bedroom. There is a lot of space in the house which could accommodate guests to sit and read. The house is in a lovely area.

My wife and I stayed 2 nights at Buky House in July '08. The house is lovely and the room was extremely comfortable and clean. Everything about our stay here was just perfect. I also have to mention the resident cat, Scooter. He is super-friendly and we enjoyed his company during our stay. Would definitely stay again and would recommend to anyone without hesitation.

I was made to feel very welcome by the owner, Gail and I appreciated extra touches like a waiting carafe of water and dark choclate upon arival. The self serve breakfast, in a huge and tastefully appointed kitchen, breakfast suited my schedule perfectly. The B&B is unique and very charming. Stayed On: 8/2008 I stayed there 2 nights and enjoyed it. Nice location, I parked right in front of the house. I would definitely stay there again and I have already recommended it to my friends.
