Sheraton Gateway Los Angeles Hotel

8/10 Good
"We always stay at the Sheraton Gateway when we travel internationally in order to make early flights. It’s been great for many years because it’s close to the airport - we can walk to the terminal, the restaurant is good, bar is welcoming, rooms are a nice size. The hotel is showing its age, however, and now we are looking elsewhere. It needs a refresh."

"Clean and relatively comfortable. Our room had the sink outside the bathroom, which some people might not like — not sure if it’s like that for other rooms. The lighting was not my favorite — hard to explain, but very fluorescent and both too bright and not bright enough at the same time. Room was very large, which was nice. Shuttle to LAX in the morning took forever, so that part wasn’t great. Staff were super friendly and professional. Hotel was serviceable and I’d stay again, but it’s not at the top of my list."
