| You cant go wrong with the Hampton Inn product! Located in a quiet, lush area in Southern LA. This place is a hidden gem due to the $2.50 beers available for purchase at the front desk! Also don't forget the intimate breakfast from 6a to 930a. |

| The hotel is very close to the airport. Hotel staff was very friendly and accommodating, if the van is available, they'll take you almost anywhere you'd like. There is a mini fridge and microwave in the rooms. The rooms are clean, updated, and good sized. Hotel seems to be pretty new. Free wireless internet in the hotel and the hotel does have a business center as well. Hotel has a an outdoor pool (you can get wireless internet out by the pool as well). Just like the other Hampton Inns, there is free breakfast available. There's also a small room next to the front counter where they have "fast" food available that you can bring to your room and stick in the microwave. The only bad thing is that the hotel does NOT have a restaurant or bar. |
| Places To Eat: |
| There are plenty of places to eat around the hotel, but nothing really within walking distance. The hotel van will drive you almost anywhere you'd like. Ask the front desk or van driver for good places to eat, like Lafayette's, Blue Dog Cafe, Hog Heaven, Bone Fish Grill, Cabrerra's (spelling?), Buffalo Wild Wings, etc. |
| Things To Do: |
| Nothing really much to do around the hotel. Hang out by the pool on a good day. I'm sure you can find something to do on a long overnight, but you'll most likely have to rent a car or something. |

| Clean rooms, clean hotel. Free wireless. Mini fridge/Microwave in the rooms |
| Places To Eat: |
| Same places as the old Hilton, just a little farther away (Outback, Chili's, Japanese steakhouse). Try the Blue Dog for great Cajun. Van will take you to restaurants. If you're in late, there's a freezer with hot pockets, etc...and a microwave in the room. |
| Things To Do: |
| Get some rest...that 0440 show is gonna hurt! |

| Hotel Comments: |
| Nice hotel. Appears to be pretty new. The positives: Free wireless internet and free breakfast. Fridge and microwave in room, "convenience store" behind front desk to buy food. Very close to airport with short van ride available on demand. This makes it nice for those infamous XJT early shows. Negatives: No restaurant, and I did not see anything within walking distance. I did not ask about the van service for food since it was such a short overnight. |
| Places To Eat: |
| Buy microwavable food from behind front desk. Enjoy the full free breakfast. Did not see anything within walking distance. Ask about van service. |
| Things To Do: |
| Good luck. Still better than the Hilton though IMHO. |
