[QUOTE]Originally posted by Gilbert B Norman: [QB] Mr & Mrs. Nittany Lions-- As a fellow Big Ten Alum (Univ of Ill '70), come to a forum like ours and you will get an array of opinions. First you received a chorus in favor of the "Dive Inn near the Depot'; next Mr. Smith has suggested a major brand (with quite reasonable rates if I may say) near LAX (the Airport; also coincidentally the Amtrak Station Code for Union Station as well) but with having to confront a bus ride into town the morning of your departure. But allow me to suggest a third; and that is a major brand Downtown and near the station. The closest major to LAUS (official term for Union Station) is The Biltmore. Having stayed there (albeit not in a while), be it assured it is quite a property now operated by Millennium Hotels and is located a short taxicab ride from LAUS. Possibly their rates may scare you off (think State College on a football weekend), but they are a web check away and didn't scare me away (guarantee you the $12 military rate I once stayed there on is "not about' to be offered - I have stayed there at "civvy rates"). If they don't scare you, this is what I would suggest as somehow being at the wrong end of a bus ride the morning of departure would simply add about ten points to a BP reading. Finally, there are some here who 'swear by" the hotel consolidator and auction sites (Priceline, whatever). While I'd never use one ("best surprise is no surprise"), hear the faction out for any of their thoughts. disclaimer: while having traveled 3/4ths around the world in this life, author is "not really a traveler anymore". My 21 or so nights a year away from home are simply what I have to do "to keep friends friends and family family". [/QB][/QUOTE]
