I stayed at Mary's place for one night on a long layover at LAX. The FlyAway bus from the airport took about 1h15min during afternoon rush hour and drops you off just two blocks away. Check in was seamless. Room 1 is closest to the street (and the noise) but with a set of earplugs I slept well. It has a hostel-like feel with the shared kitchen and bathrooms but was exactly what I was looking for. Thanks Mary!
