We visited LA during a heatwave, and staying at Laura's was definitely still comfortable with the AC and the fan during 101+ degree temps, which was much appreciated. The place is easy to find and street parking was always available. The room is cozy, but not claustrophobic, and I slept well every night I was there. My biggest criticism was that I felt that one corner of the room wasn't as clean as I would've liked. The kitchenette area was very clean as well as the bathroom tho. There is ample closet space to hang garments and store things if you want them out of the way. I felt Laura is an excellent communicator, and I didn't want for much. I'd say if you're looking for an economical and comfortable stay and have a rental car or doing business in North LA, Laura's a definite good spot to consider.
