    Stayed two nights in LA and this bed and breakfast was definitely a better choice than any hotel. Gail was helpful, the room clean and comfortable. The location is great, you can go for a short walk to the Miracle mile, or to some good restaurants nearby. Highly recommended !

    We are a family of four plus two friends from Germany, who stayed at the Buky house for 8 days in the summer of 2009. We had found the apartment on the internet but had not been so sure about what we would find there. But when we arrived at the Buky house we were pleasantly surprised. First of all the location is quite marvellous: West Hollywood really is a nice play if you want to explore all that's great in Los Angeles. Santa Monica, the sea, Hollywood, Sunset Boulevard, all within a half-hour drive via the freeways. A large supermarket just round the corner. Famers Market within a footwalk. And with the "Grove" a very asonishing shopping centre within reach. The apartment itself - we stayed on the ground floor - is absolutely comfortable. With 6 people you are really glad about three spacious bedrooms, along with two bathrooms. The kitchen is really well equiped, there is a large living room complete with a fireplace and full of comfortable sofas and chairs. We found Gail to be nice and helpful - although we didn't come to have her breakfast! So we still have something left for the case of us coming back to the Buky house - which will be hopefully within the next 12 months!


    I love Buky House.

    Buky House was the perfect base for my month long exploration of L.A. life. After a long day walking the streets and riding the local buses, it was comforting to return to a clean, quiet and relaxing place. Gail (the owner) is the ideal B&B operator, being conscientious, considerate and friendly. The house is in a great location close to the buzz of Hollywood and glamour of Beverly Hills. Leave your car at home- the nearby busses will take you from Melrose Avenue to Malibu and anywhere in between. Breakfast consists of bagels, bread, cream cheese and jam, muesli, fruit and brewed coffee or tea- no complaints there.


    A true hidden gem in a lovely neighborhood

    I just got back from a week long business trip to L.A. Reading the reviews of The Buky House B&B, I decided to give it a try. The bungalow/guest suite is absolutely charming. A large place with a very comfortable bed, separate bathroom, and a small kitchenette. On the countertop were fresh bananas, bagels, tea, & cereal. In the fridge were two kinds of milk, fresh strawberries, butter, jam & yogurt. The kitchenette has dishes, glassware, flatware, paper towels,etc. The guest suite is decorated in contemporary furnishings and colors which are rather comforting. Wifi is also available and the sliding glass door leads out to the nice patio. I spent a very comfortable 6 nights in the bungalow. I moved into the Purple Room in the main house on the last day of my stay. Comfortable bed, separate bathroom, digital cable t.v. Gail's house is gorgeous. Decorated with some very nice artwork and furnishings. The neighborhood is in the Hancock Park area. I took a walk one morning and enjoyed the beautiful homes on the same street as the Buky House and the other beautiful homes on the other streets. I love the Buky House and will stay there again when I go back to L.A., if Gail has availability. She is very friendly and accommodating. She also provides a parking tag for you to hang in your car since parking is on the street. Very safe, quiet neighborhood. For a female traveling alone, this is a plus.

    I travel to Los Angeles often and have finally found my "home away from home"!!! The location is PERFECT and the beds are great!! (two of the top three I rate regarding lodging). I love the feel of Buky House - it is beautifully decorated, offering a warm, welcoming ambiance. The food and ammenities did not dissapoint either. Another big asset for me is location. Buky House is within walking distance of great restaurants, shops and markets. Attractions such as The Grove, Hollywood Bowl, The Beverly Center, and all that downtown Los Angeles offers, i.e., museums, theatre, the Staples Center, and 5 star restaurants are only a short drive away. The convenience is wonderful. When planning your next visit to Los Angeles, I would definitely consider making Buky House your "home away from home", you won't be dissapointed!!! Sue S. Nipomo
