Didn,t like Hollywood at all really, won't return, little bit old, run down and got a seedy side that I didn't like, even 2nd shop was a smoke shop, tattoo place, wig shop, sexy underwear shop or bar, so not really to my liking More

I thought of Hollywood CA like the city of the stars. I thought you would walk down the street and you would be able to see Angelina Jolie holding hands with Brad Pitt LOL :) or Sarah Parker on a shopping spree. But no I didn't see one actor and everything is too too expensive. Not a great trip :( More

Don't go. Junk. Bad shops, bad tourists, bad shills in movie costumes trying to get tips for taking your p[hoto with them-- really irritating, occasional fights, just awful experience. Go to a movie instead. More

Hollywood has changed a lot over the years, but to me, it still is comfortable and nostalgic. More
