The Expression "love it here"
Hi
I'm reading a book and the phrase, "someone loves it here" comes up often in the book. Would you explain a bit how I should read it? (btw the book is about a guy working at a hotel)
1) The girls have been coming for years now. They love it here.
(my guess is, they love to be here, or they love to spend their time here.)
2) His (JaBang's) crew is inside the bus partying, they keep the engine running to bust loud music. Some of the hotel guests complain that they can hear the noise from the parking lot. JaBang loves it here even if it's only for a minute.
(my guess is, JaBang loves to listen to his music here. ? something wrong.)
Thanks,
M

In sentences like these, "it" is often used as a "dummy object" that has no particular meaning. For example:
I like it when she sings.
I love it when you laugh.
I like it when she sings.
I love it when you laugh.
