I will be in LA for 3 days and wnt to stay in a hostle near/in Hollywood, due to being on my own and wanting to be near some of the usual tourist haunts. I need some comments on good hostels and day trips, or anything that you could think of to make the most of my stay worthwhile. Also what is the weather like early december??

Thanks in advance.

PS Is $300 US going to be enough for a moderatley good time.
