It makes more sense to stay at the O Hotel because the number of rooms being purchased. The O Hotel is very pretty and clean looking. It is a perfect stay for a large group of people. In my opinion is it wrong to stay at the airport when traveling with this many people. I think it is wrong to stay an airport period. It is right to find a reasonable hotel to stay at.

Arriving in LA at 10:37am. This is a direct flight. The cost is $328.00 a person. http://www.kayak.com/#/flights/JFK-LAX/2013-03-03/2013-03-08/6adults I think leaving from JFK is a more reasonable idea. The time is earlier in the morning but they will land in LA sooner. The cost is also cheaper. I think this is a better idea when traveling with a large group of people. There is also no layover on the Jet Blue flight. It is smarter and less expensive to leave from JFK. I used expedia.com and kayak.com to find these airline tickets. I used these two because they are the most known websites to find airline tickets.
