We loved our stay at Sam's place. Location was perfect. We had a car so took a day trip to Venice Beach and Griffiths Park and Runyon Canyon were both short drives. Walking distance to Hollywood Blvd and Walk of Fame. Great eating places, so handy. Recommend 800 Degrees Pizza and Tender Greens which are right under building. Pool was nice and very handy to have a gym with good equipment. Would definitely recommend to fellow travellers.
