I vacationed in the Hollywood area between Oct. 27th and Nov. 1st. I was not familiar with the area and had heard conflicting reports warning me about the neighborhood since I was a woman traveling alone. I decided to take my chances and see for myself and I couldn't have been more pleased. I was able to check in early and was given a nice room with a courtyard view. The hotel staff were accommodating in every aspect. My room and the hotel in general were well kept and I being a woman traveling alone I felt safe. I was comfortable walking around the neighborhood and public transporatation was complete accessible. As an added perk, continental breakfast was more than just fruit and bagels, you get a full breakfast. I plan to travel to the area several times a year and would definitely stay at The Hollywood Hotel again.
