Sonesta Los Angeles Airport LAX
A very nice Airport Hotel just about a block from the entrance to LAX. The airport shuttle runs every 15 minutes and was clean and efficient. We will definitely book another stay here in the near future.

Unless you are a member get ready to pay for WiFi, something you get free at most hotels! Parking is super expensive per day, not to mention the craziness to find a spot even though you have to pay!
