Sonesta Los Angeles Airport LAX
Comfortable and clean room. Room was very quiet despite its proximity to the airport. Staff were wonderful, warm and helpful. The corridors, elevator and hallways are quite worn and I was concerned about the room but the bed was comfy and the bathroom was sparkling clean.
