We spent almost a week in Julian's place in October and had a wonderful time. His place is fantastic and spotlessly clean. The garden/patio area is really gorgeous! Silverlake is a really cool spot and was ideal for us as we didn't have a car. Julian left great tips about where to go in the local area- we were regulars in cafe tropical for breakfast :) and night and market song restaurant on sunset was outstanding-definitely the best meal of our entire 2-week trip- don't miss it! Thanks Julian!
