Located a stone's throw from Hollywood Boulevard's attractions, this garden-style hotel/motel at the base of the Hollywood Hills offers L.A.'s best cheap sleeps and is ideal for wallet-watching families or long-term stays. You won't see the Magic Castle Hotel in Travel + Leisure anytime soon -- the rooms are done in high Levitz style -- but the newly refurbished units are spacious, comfortable, and well kept. Named for the Magic Castle, the illusionist club just uphill, the hotel was once an apartment building; it still feels private and insulated from Franklin Avenue's constant stream of traffic. The units are situated around a center swimming pool. Most are large apartments with fully equipped kitchens complete with a microwave and coffeemaker (grocery shopping service is available as well).
