This is a quirky little place with great character. To those reviewers that say this place needs updating I would remind them to look around at the other houses in the neighborhood. Every home is unique, but what they all have in common is history and character. This particular part of the house was used as a recording studio and that has been incorporated into the apartment, which makes it a real cool and unique space. The apartment was clean and had everything I needed. The location is exactly as stated and is right in the heart of Silver Lake which is humming with independently owned shops and small cafes and restaurants. The host was attentive and communicated well. The price was excellent (especially considering the location). It's very quiet with friendly neighbors! However, just as an FYI the stone steps up to the apartment are uneven and so anyone considering staying must be fully mobile.
I would definitely stay here again.
