"We had a ground floor room with a sliding glass door opening to a relatively private patio with two chairs and small table. We were traveling with a small dog so this area was a very welcomed and appreciated surprise. The staff were especially welcoming and helpful. Although .. with the airport nearby, planes flew directly overhead... the room was very well soundproofed that it did not disturb at all. The difference was noticeable when the patio door was open but when closed...no problem. I would recommend this place not only for the hotel itself but also for the stores, resturants and gas stations nearby... not to mention the easy access to LAX. We had a rental car so finding the rental return was no problem at all. So.. book a room and enjoy the patio."
