Architecture The Avalon Hotel, Beverley Hills, because some hotels are just like the movies. Right down to the names of the waiting on staff...
"The Avalon was a welcome sight, as were its valets. Ivory greeted me: he with pleasantries and I with a warning that I was a nut with 95 lb worth of luggage ... After checking in, Ivory and I chatted briefly about New Zealand: it turned out he had basketball-playing friends there. The genuine conversation is standard, as I continued to find with other very cosmopolitan members of the Avalon’s staff. So much for the American who thinks the world is divided into four time zones.
Yes, Ivory. Other staff members include Korzen and Wearstler. Just one inuendo away from a James Bond film.
