The Price is Right. Many sites, such as Priceline only let you choose your hotel from certain areas.
Which areas are desirable (e.g. safe and clean; not necessarily nearby) to stay in?
Thanks in advance for any guidance.[/quote]
When I was there, I stayed at the
Comfort Inn on Vermont Ave. Nice inexpensive hotel (my trip came to about $650, including airfare, hotel and rental car for one week), but they charged out the ying-yang for everything, including parking and Internet (you have to pay for parking upfront)...oh, and the Internet was somewhat spotty. It's near Koreatown and downtown L.A., not to mention Dodger Stadium. Unfortunately, I visited on a week when nothing was taping (I think
Price had just wrapped up for the season, and I missed
Wheel/J! by a day), so, I can't tell you how close that is to TV City. However, it's about 20 minutes from NBC's Burbank studio, not to mention Universal.

I've stayed at the Comfort Inn on Vermont as well as the Comfort Inn on Comfort Inn @ 2717 West Sunset Blvd. I believe the one on Sunset is cheaper. Not the greatest area, but never felt unsafe there. It's about 20 minute drive to TVC. I stayed there because it was cheaper and was out most of the day. Look up reviews for it, as last time I stayed their internet was down for a few days.
