You could stay at a place in Culver City, so you re close.http://www.tripadvisor.com/Hotels-g32272��If you re looking for a comfortable and safe stay, though, I d suggest staying in Beverly Hills or Hollywood. Extra safe would be the San Fernando Valley (Warner Center is a very nice area), but it s a longer drive to and from WLAC.
Beverly Hills, West LA, Near LAX Airport, Downtown, Hollywood,etc.
In Los Angeles county... somewhere on the beach would be very nice :)
