<p>There’s also a very nice Bed & Breakfast near USC (walking distance & you can park there at no extra charge). You can book directly on her website. If the link disappears, search inn b&b patsy usc los angeles and it will pop up. TripAdvisor reviews were very positive, as was the report from S’s freshman room mate’s mom, who stayed there several times.</p>

<p>I’ve never stayed there. We had an awful experience with the paper-thin walls at the Holiday Inn near USC, but our friend had no complaints at the same hotel. Go figure!</p>
<p>If you have a car, Old Town Pasadena has a nice Courtyard, which we enjoyed staying at, but it’s a 30+ minute drive to USC. We have friends who stay at airport hotels & zip to & from USC quickly. Most of the time, we stay with good friends and forgo the hotel experience, especially after our bad time at Holiday Inn.</p>
