I've stayed at the LAX Airport Hilton & the Holiday Inn Express & both are great properties IMHO. I know of people that use the Hacienda because it's cheap & don't have a problem with it.
Another who has used Travelodge and while it's no Hilton or Hyatt, is clean and inexpensive and (as stated) does the job.
Note: mine was a daytime transit stay on a day rate
How much couple of bucks?
Breakfast option...across the road or down the street?
This pace is good..quiet, hot shower, dow jones going bonkers on tv
Can people look at TID thread as have claim questions please
Many Americans don't tip free hotel shuttle drivers. :idea: The time to tip though, is if they get up from their seat, and handle your bags.
The best tip that I ever had from an American (and they don't like explaining tipping to outsiders, especially ones who don't understand the concept of "not getting paid properly by the boss to do a good job") was - if you tip every time that you are meant too tip, then you will have no money left in your wallet.
Have you tried to look for a BRG rate with either IHG or Choice Hotel properties? Considering you can get a free room, it's worth taking sometime out of your day to do this.
