Oh my God , I love , it's so homey , but so cute and well done and so boutiquey . The bar that is down below Hotel Covel , it's called Bar Covell , which was opened four years before I had the idea to do the hotel . So Covell is the main street that I grew up on in Oklahoma .

This is where I would spend all my time . Hotel Covel is a nine bedroom boutique hotel in the heart of Los Feliz . Well , it's special because I think that it is a hybrid between the traditional hotel model and maybe more of that airbnb .

I graduated from CAL Arts and I moved down here and I was a bartender at a very , very popular restaurant called Cafe Stella . I think I opened Covel for 121 $140,000 which is pretty unheard of to open anything in L A for so cheap . And I rolled that in L and E Oyster Bar .
