I hope that clears up any confusion.
In many cities, there are airport hotels which are as much as 5-10 miles from the airport, however, since I found SO MANY, I just made reference to all of them, even though many of them are in very close proximity to the airport, and several of them do have airport or LAX in their names. Since you put "(even in other hotels in LA)" and not (even for other LAX hotels) in your posting, and since LA hotels and LAX hotels are not the same thing, it would be quite reasonable to offer you what I did. Also, since LNF rates are specifically sensitive to that one hotel, it seemed as if you were confused about how LNF works, since you were comparing different hotels, with different prices, and casting a wide net, that you were more interested in lower prices than in specifically LNF hotel rates. Would you be more interested in a LNF hotel which nets you a $186.40/night rate, or a non LNF hotel which nets you a $160/night rate. There was quite a bit about your post which was unclear, so I replied as best as I could, given the criteria you supplied (hotel, LAX, LA, $239, $219, date(s), no specific budget, no specific type of hotel other than "other", and better).
ADD EDIT: You did not mention Loyola Marymount in your original request, and, for what it is worth, in doing the search that I did, 8 out of the first 12 hotels which come up have either "LAX" or "Airport" as part of their names, and in this case, up to four miles from LAX. Specific help requires specific information.
