We spent two lovely nights at Maddalena's private and calm oasis in Atwater Village, super close driving distance from the restaurants and bars in Silverlake and Echo Park. The house is tucked away from the quiet street in a safe residential neighborhood. After the hustle and bustle of dealing with LA traffic and crowds, it was nice to come back to a relaxing and quiet part of LA. Maddy was an excellent, warm and welcoming host. The day of our arrival, she met us at the house and gave us a quick tour and remembered that I asked for a french press and hairdryer. She also left chocolate by our bedside tables, goodies in the fridge, and nice toiletries for our short stay. We're sorry that our schedules didn't allow the opportunity to enjoy the hammock and outdoor area, but we hope to real soon. Thanks you for your hospitality Maddy!
