The cottage is a wonderful little gem in the Echo Park / Silver Lake neighborhood. I reserved it for my parents while they were visiting instead of a hotel and it was the best decision. It was very easy to communicate with Mark and check in. Lots of thoughtful touches like wine and coffee available. The space was cozy and my parents loved being able to sit on the back patio in the morning while they drank coffee and read. The outdoor space and grill allowed us to throw a little dinner party with my friends.
The only thing to note is that the bathroom only has a tub, not a traditional stand up shower. It wouldn't stop me from recommending this place wholeheartedly or prevent my parents from staying there again but it took my dad a little getting use to.
5 stars for sure - would recommend to anyone who wants their home base in LA to be on the trendy east side but with the quiet of a secluded neighborhood.
