Darrell and Bev are fantastic hosts. Darrell greeted us as we pulled up and took our bags to the cottage. A welcome bottle of wine was waiting for us on the kitchen table. Darrell and Bev checked with us every day to make sure we were enjoying ourselves and were comfortable. The kitchen area and the bathroom in the cottage are well equipped and the setting is really charming. There is a lovely patio and garden area. A nice place to sit and have morning coffee or relax and read. A washer and dryer are also available. Darrell has a folder in which he lists many of the highlights of the area as well as another huge folder with brochures from may of the local restaurants. The location is perfect for anyone staying in Silver Lake. The cottage is within walking distance to the local shops and is an easy drive to the freeways and downtown LA. By the time we left, Darrell and Bev felt more like friends than air bnb hosts. This was our first air bnb experience and it couldn't have been better. We look forward to staying with Darrell and Bev again the next time we are in LA
