expected much more for the price
My entire experience with this hotel was low quality. It started with a 35 minute wait to be picked up by the airport shuttle. I saw multiple of the same shuttles for other airports before the travelodge one finally arrived.
My room was spacious, but the tv was old (not a flat screen). The shower head was low, water pressure was low. I found an empty glass vodka bottle under my bed... I'm glad I didn't have any kids or teens with me as I think that would have caused more problems.
I was lucky to take an earlier flight, but I had to wait around 40 minutes for an airport shuttle. It only holds something like 9 people and this was quickly taken up by a family of 6 and one other group. Hence, a number of others waiting had to wait for this shuttle to return. Given that there are around 170 rooms at this airport hotel, it would seem like they could use an additional driver or two.
The luggage carts were helpful with transporting my bags, but the slanted pavement area by the pool meant my heavy bags crashed into a bush or two along the way.
Overall it is definitely a hotel I would avoid next time. Given the price, I was expecting more. I'll try something else next time I fly to LA and you should too.
