Considering the reasonable price, this is a fine place to stay for a few nights. We were a family of four on a budget, so it suited us well. It's a bit close-quarters for so many, but we managed. A couple would fit better. The cooking space is quite simple, but for basic cooking it's alright. Laurie and her family were very welcoming, so we appreciated that. Also appreciated the cleanliness and decor. Keep in mind that the studio is a former garage in the hosts' backyard. Despite that, we were given privacy. A fine place to stay for a short time considering the price and its location not too far from LA's main sights.
