Well, I booked this hotel twice. Once at the end of August and another time in September. I will see how it is. Biggest perk is I can walk from the United Terminal at LAX to this hotel without need for a shuttle. Main question is how they handle late check out requests for Elites. As a Marriott Gold, I am allowed a 2 PM checkout at non-resorts. I will be needing a late checkout both times as my flights ex-LAX leave 4:55 PM and 4:33 PM respectively. I saw they charge for late check-outs but no indication if that is applicable to Elites, which it should not.
