Hi everyone,
my sister is coming to visit me in Phoenix and wants to go to LA for a weekend in February. We'll arrive late evening Friday and leave in the afternoon on Monday. We have a party of 5 (my sister, her 2 teenagers (15 & 17) then me and my 7yo). We want to do:
Day 1 - Saturday: The touristy stuff in Hollywood (walk of fame, Chinese theater, studio tour, maybe tour of stars' homes, maybe Rodeo Drive, maybe observatory).
Day 2 - Sunday: Universal Studios Hollywood
Day 3 - Monday: Beach until after lunch, then drive back to Phoenix (thinking Venice/Santa Monica)
Because we'll mostly do Hollywood area stuff, I'm leaning towards staying there and currently have the Hollywood Orchid Suites (Deluxe 2 king suite with a rollaway) and the Holiday Inn Express & Suites Hollywood Walk of Fame (2 queens and a sofa bed) booked.
Any recommendations on the best between the two? Location is great for both. Won't use the kitchenette much, not a factor. With parking included Holiday Inn is cheaper by $150. Trying to keep costs low which is why we're all sharing 1 room. It will be tight but I'm not too worried. Orchid has a separate bedroom with 1 king, 1 king with cot in living room. More privacy/separation.
Any suggestions appreciated!
