    That would be my 1st. time in LA, and I´ll probably rent a car alone...so, 4 people can come along for the show

    that is really nice of you to offer to drive people to the show! :)

    agreed. And I think a few people are renting cars, so maybe we can all spread the loooove....If I don't stay with the group, I might be able to pick peoples up too.

  • Thanks. I think my wife and I really want to be on Sunset. It would be cool to be with other PJ people, but if you all decide Wilshire, that's fine too. Just throwing out my opinion.

    there are a few more of us looking.... might stay at a LAX hotel and just rent a car/drive.... it's only like 10 miles away

  • Please let me know where everyone will be.Booked my tix for flight today,but Ive left the hotel open.Coming in solo from N.Y..Thanx
  • The Ramada on Wilshire only gives a $10 discount per room for groups:

    single $85+tax per night
    double $95+tax per night

    The Ramada is only 1 mile from the theater so no car needed for those staying there. I would like a large group to walk with tho - LOL - my first time in LA and would like safety in numbers!!

  • im considering either the Ramada, right near the venue...or this place:

    http://www.rodewayinn.com ( 7721 Beverly Blvd, Los Angeles, CA )

    which seems good too, same cost, and kinda in between the sunset strip and the Wiltern

    my first thought was just to do the Ramada, but so many have said the area isnt that great (and/or safe)...and after the shows i doubt we'd stay around there, prolly go out somewhere off sunset or something, so really no point in staying close if I'm gonna be cabbing it everywhere anyways

    hmmm...

    youre right, its close to everything. and its true, stay somewhere near places you wanna see. not just by the venue if ure here longer than 2 days!

  • Found this review of that Comfort Inn mentioned:

    Previous reviews have said the neighbourhood is unsafe and I wouldn’t disagree with that, the area is a bit seedy but I went across the road to the small strip mall to do my laundry and didn’t feel unsafe. A little further west on Sunset Boulevard there is a trendy area called Silver Lake which has lots of nice restaurants and cafes. As with anywhere in Los Angeles you really do need a car and the hotel does have an underground parking area which unlike some other motels I have stayed at in Los Angeles had nice wide spaces, although it is advertised as secure parking the gate at the entrance was never closed from what I saw. The hotels address is West Sunset Boulevard, but it is located at the very eastern end of Sunset Boulevard close to downtown Los Angeles and staying here like practically anywhere in Los Angeles a car is required and the traffic is bad all the time so a short journey anywhere can take a long time.

    Living and working all over LA for 6 yrs (not living there now), a neighborhood scene can turn from swank to ghetto in 2 seconds just by driving down 2 streets. If you're a girl, traveling alone, don't take the public transport, it's generally not the safest route. Renting a car is the best way to go...I stayed at a Holiday Inn Express in Marina Del Rey for a decent price, safe area. Check out Ventura Blvd in the San Fernando Valley for some fun...great bars, restaurants, music (even Dave Grohl goes there). I personally don't like Culver City, Studio City is cool, anywhere in West Hollywood should be fine, N. Hollywood does get a bit kinky at night, dont' stay downtown unless you know the area...very confusing and please stay away from East LA.
