Awesome

Hilton Los Angeles Airport
The room was clean beds were comfortable. We got in at midnight and were still able to get food at the 24hr bistro. We didn’t stay long but served its purpose and very clean and nice hotel

Hilton Anaheim
Check in was quick and easy. Staff were nice and helpful. We paid for pool view but unfortunately the view was disappointing as we’re were on the lower level and can only see a corner of the pool. Shuttle service to Disneyland was cheap but wait was long. Would stay here again but wouldn’t pay extra ...
