This place is magic. It is a hidden away retreat, away from the hustle and bustle of Sunset, yet close enough to take advantage of all that Silver Lake has to offer. The neighborhood is amazing. We walked every day up and down those hills (who needs a gym membership) and enjoyed the gardens and views of the city below. Check out the farmers market if you visit on a Saturday or Tuesday.
The lodge is cozy, clean, with a comfortable bed and great kitchen. I never slept better, because it was so quiet and dark at night. The patio was our favorite part. Lush, fragrant. Yes the steps are original and you do need to be careful. There were lights that came on automatically which made going up and down easily.
We have business and our son in LA, so this will likely be the spot for us to stay coming back!
