basically i booked the cheapest motel that offered free shuttle service from lax. they picked me up from the airport and upon arrival i was given vouchers for free champagne. i didn't check in til midnight and still got my champagne at the bar! this place was way cool. apparently it's also a hostel, so there were all kinds of cool people to meet and they had video games and places to lounge around by the pool. the room was HUGE. very nice. i wish i wouldn't have checked in so late and had to leave so early the next morning so i could have enjoyed my time there a bit longer.
