Hilton Los Angeles Airport
Nice and close to the airport. Great size room. Very comfortable bed and a very clean hotel. Only issue I found is that the shower took close to 5 minutes before warm water came out. Maybe that's because it was 6AM. Anyway, not a big deal, I just left it running until it warmed up. Other than that ...
