This apartment is a real treasure. It is attached, though completely separate, to a family home and has the benefit of two private decks/balconies + the use of a beautfully-clean pool. It is a step away from the south end of the reservoir and I completed the 2.5 mile lap of the reservoir each morning - along with half of Silverlake and their dogs.

Lemons hang on the tree outside the apartment and you have sweeping views of the Silverlake hillside from one of the balconies. Silverlake benefits from a cool breeze running through the valley and the leaves on the trees in the garden gently rustle throughout the day.

Donna and Bill and their elderly (though energetic) dog made us feel so welcome from the moment we arrived. You have a choice of the NYT or the LA Times (or both!) each morning. The apartment is thoughtfully kitted out with everything you could need during your stay. Furniture/bed linen/toiletries are all a really high standard. The apartment is just a few minutes walk away from some great restaurants including LAMill, a fantastic coffee shop (try the Eggs Benedict…). There is also a 7-11 nearby for basics though you will need to go further afield for more groceries.

We will certainly return. Thank you Donna and Bill.
