Hi littlemay, 1. LA to SF - 6 to 7 hrs 2. LA to LV - 4 to 5 hrs 3. LV to SF - 10 to 11 hrs All the timing advised is based on average driving speed and traffic. Could be longer or shorter if u drive faster or traffic is smooth. For a more detailed route and timing, go to...

hi pple, the LV strip is really very long, it takes at least 1 day just to walk from 1 end to the end with minimal stopping. So be prepared & wear comfy shoes 4 walking if u intend to conquer the entire strip. ANd yeah there are monorail from certain hotels to another but if u really wan to...

hi ginn, depending on ur luck, sometimes they have bags costing less than US$200 or slightly more. But dun expect the latest designs or a wide range. I bot a big black monogram hobo for abt US$250, pretty worth it if u ask me cos it very roomy. One thing is tat they will imprint a small...

Hi pple, Desert Hill is abt 1 hr 15 mins to 1.5 hrs drive frm LA downtown. Less time if u speed all the way :P But i certainly dun encourage tat cos smtimes they hav patrol cars parked alongside the highway shoulders, esp. in LA area. And ginn is rite, Desert Hill has more branded...

ralphine, ramada is generally (not all) located at more ulu places. And their chain of motels are quite old & dull-y...i stayed once & avoided it since. Few of my frens they also dun hav gd reviews on ramada..

ralphine, generally based on my experience, so far all the choice hotels I've stayed (Comfort Inn, Quality Inn, Super 8) are quite alright in terms of cleanliness. Quite value 4 money, i shld say based on their rates. Another chain of hotels which i like very much is Homestead Studios. THey...
