We had a wonderful stay at Michael's home in Silver Lake.
The space itself is wonderful and private, with its own entrance on to a lovely garden filled with birds and trees. The room is clean and bright, and there's an electric kettle-tea set up that makes it homey.
The location is obviously great; close to Silver Lake restaurants along Sunset, the shops and boutiques toward Los Feliz, and Echo Park on the other side. It was easy for us to get downtown and into other neighborhoods we wanted to visit.
Michael was a generous and helpful host. He responded quickly and comprehensively to messages, and provided helpful recommendations regarding restaurants. He also let us leave our stuff there after check-out, and to check out a little belatedly due to a late arrival after a hike.
We'd stay with Michael again!
