I needed a place for the night to attend a game at Intuit Dome and then sleep for a few hours before my early morning flight out of LAX. Elev8 Hotel was PERFECT for both! It's an easy 5 minute walk to the Intuit Dome, and a short drive to LAX.
Going in, I was concerned about safety in the area, but the hotel was very secure and safe, even late at night after the game.
And I was pleasantly surprised with the room! I expected a basic, no frills room with a bed and TV, because that's what the rate suggested. But the room looked and felt much more fancy than I expected, certainly wasn't basic by any means!
And it's QUIET! Even with a sliding door to a balcony overlooking Century Blvd. (I was on the 3rd floor) I didn't hear any street noise and slept very well.
TIP: If you want to get a car to explore, there's an Enterprise rental car place literally right next door. I picked up a car at LAX to drive to the beach, then dropped it off at check-in. VERY convenient!
