II chose this place because it was close to LAX, easy to drive elsewhere from, and everyone had said how hospitable Blanca, Paul (and Lola the dog) are. All these things are true.
As a first time long haul traveler, Blanca and Paul were excellent hosts and helped me adjust to different place/different time zone well. Paul recommended Pann's Restaurant nearby for breakfast - a good choice.
The shower was also amazing - what you would expect in a 5* Hotel.
If I come back to LAX I would hope to stay here again.
