Hyatt Place LAX/Century Blvd
Overall it was a great trip. Their breakfast was pretty undependable tho serving whole chicken sausages for breakfast. And the pool closed really early even though it was well lit and perfectly safe.

The place itself was good. Location was perfect for our visit. The issue- the overwhelming amount of fees that were charged!! Destination fee? Resort fee? $60 parking fee?? Had we known we may have chosen some where else
