Sounds great, we are returning for the 3rd time in the Summer and can’t wait

We have done most of the stuff you are planning to do

In Hollywood we stayed at The Magic Castle hotel but it was a apartment so you got 2 double beds plus a sofa bed and also a kitchen, it was by no means fancy but it was clean , you also got free breakfast and snacks all day for free, not sure if they still do it

When in Anaheim we also rented a 3 bed condo with shared swimming pool, it was great

We will skip Hollywood on our next trip and probably go to Palm Springs and San Diego but not sure yet, really wanted to go to San Francisco but just too expensive for us at the moment

Our budget is tight as son is now at Uni and that costs us a fortune haha

Happy planning
