Lucy's Laundry Mart — Local services in Los Angeles

Really needs maintenence. 1/3rd of the front loaders are non-operational. There's hacked repairs work everywhere. Isles are a little tight, which makes it extra challenging for running kids to negotiate the facility. most washers only have 4 settings. And if you use cold, it is only for delicate setting.

On a good note. It IS open 24 hours a day. There are interesting people that frequent the area (ie homeless, sock salesmen and chemical dependant folks), but they are generally not dangerous. I'm presuming the drugs that are being sold are poor quality compared to the top shelf weed that can be purchased on almost every block's dispensary in LA Clothes get generally clean. There's always an attendant on to point out when a machine is not working or help when the change machine takes your money but does not dispense quarters. theres also a recycling Center right next door if you have a couple bags of recyclables.

this is my normal go to spot since the one in echo park was shut down. the policy is that if you show up and the place is dead the employees are allowed to close for the night but they open up promptly the following morning. the staff are very friendly are helpful. they just replaced a whole bunch of old machines over the summer and the place really needed it and if you are wondering they recycled the only machines. there is a taco shop next door, a recycling center next to that, a 99 cents store across the street next to the park. a dollar tree a small block from there. the seating options are still a work in progress. the laundromat runs on solar energy as you can see the large panels on the roof. there is wifi but the password is complex so you will have to ask one of the staff to share it with you. the wifi reaches the street so the coverage is wide and broad. the bathroom situation lacks something to be desired. and they have a machine to refill your water jugs with filtered water and...

First thing I like about this laundry is that it is 24 hours. They're pretty lenient laid-back staff everybody seems to be minding their own business and doing their laundry. They have a lot of parking good washing machines they wash very well. There are a few people that just come to hang out so be advised that there are people that are loitering so maybe not the best place to go do laundry by yourself at night but definitely if you have somebody bring them with you. They have a restroom, massage chair ,exercise machine a few gambling games, a claw machine and some rides for kids and TVs you will definitely be entertained Coffee machine snack bar you can buy soap and bleach as well laundry bags they have everything you need...
