This is the place to stay for international guests. The shuttle is a bit slow from the airport but once there the service begins. The check in is super fast and they also have check out kiosks so you don't have to wait in line. Also airline web check in kiosks.
The rooms are clean and the bed is super comfortable.
The guests are varied. From prom people to tatooed ones to old geezers.
Noise level is ok. You are next to an airport. Rooms were quiet enough to get a good sleep.
All in all it was nice for a quick stop over on internatinal trips. Wish the van came quicker for the drop off. And let's have no tipping for the bag guy. The give you the look if you don't tip.

We stayed in this hotel for one night only, comming directly from the airport with the hotel shuttle. The check-in was fast and the staff friendly. We got a room on the groundfloor with direct access to the pool area. That was excellent, because we could relax after a long flight. Remarkable are the beds, it's like heaven! The car rental companies are just around the corner, so we got our car in the afternoon. The hotel has a guided parking, but due to a conference in the hotel, space was rare. They take 19 $ for self-park with in and out feature. in about 20 minutes (what is excellent for LA), you reach St. Monica and Hollywood as well. When we come back, we'll stay there for some more nights!

I stayed at this hotel for two nights while attending a dance convention. We arrived on a Friday night and check in took all of 5 minutes. I was traveling with a friend and her kids and we asked if we could be on a high floor and close to each other. The very nice front desk clerk gave us adjoining rooms on the 8th floor overlooking the beautiful pool area. It was perfect.

The room is very small, especially the bathroom. We joked that you could sit on the toilet and brush your teeth in the sink. Although the rooms were small, they were furnished nicely and were very clean. The beds were comfy with lots of pillows.

We ate at the two restuarants (not the steak house) and both were very good. The service and the food was fine. It was very convenient to have restaurants at the hotel. The prices were also reasonable. Try the champ fries in the sports bar, they were really good.

I have a feeling the hotel was packed because there were at least 600 dancers and their families there for the convention. It did seem a little crowded and the elevators took forever because there were so many people using them. However, the service from everyone was friendly and efficient.

The fitness center is a little hard to find but it is big and well equipped with weight and cardio machines. The treadmills have flatscreen tvs attached to them. I had never seen that before. The pool area is very nice and tropical and the pool is huge. It has a 9 foot deep end. I didn't go in, but the kids had a great time.

One thing you might want to be aware of is the parking is $19.00 per day, so be prepared. Valet is a bit more.

I would definately recommend this Marriott. Oh, and one of the things I love about Marriott hotels is that they are all non-smoking.

My husband and I stayed here the night before an early morning flight. The staff is very accommodating and check-in/out is a breeze. The rooms themselves are pretty small although they have been updated with Marriott's revive bedding. The room had a really nice plasma TV which pleased my husband immensely (Final 4 was on). The room appeared clean and tidy.

The bathrooms are REALLY small -- you can barely close the door and unless you hop into the tub first. The amenities are standard Marriott ginger scented products -- not my taste but you find them everywhere.

The concierge lounge has a good selection of treats and a computer with printer. The staff working at the lounge can help you with all types of things -- just ask.

The airport shuttle runs every 30 minutes but is shared with the Renaissance hotel. If you are in a hurry, miss the shuttle by 5 minutes or have lots of luggage spend $10 including tip and take a taxi. It was so much easier!

Overall a nice hotel for an overnight stay.
