Blake's cottage is a fantastic little hideaway in Silverlake. One of the cutest AirBnB's I've stayed in.
Blake stayed up late to welcome me to the cottage after my long transatlantic flight. Sensing I needed a drink to help me sleep he pulled out a bottle of wine from his personal collection. What a star!
Access is super easy with a lockbox key.
The location was great for my needs - quiet enough to be left in peace if necessary, but everywhere easily accessible via uber (or a short walk to food / coffee).
Basically you get the benefit of experiencing living in an awesome neighbourhood for a fraction of the price :)
I'd definitely stay here again and recommend it to other AirBnBers!
