What a lovely place! Location! Location! Location! The house itself has a cozy, funky vibe. It is a true beautiful old craftsman style. We felt so relaxed and right at home in this Silver Lake slice of heaven. And the view! Stunning. We spent most of our time on the upper back deck overlooking downtown L.A. The street and neighborhood are very quiet. We became aware that our walking (or dropping anything) was probably disturbing the downstairs guests, so we left our shoes at the door, and walked barefoot. The house is very close to lots of great restaurants. Our favorite meal in L.A. was at Mh Zh (byob), just down the hill from the house. We also had some great meals per Matthew's recommendations. He was very responsive to any questions we had. I would not hesitate to return to Matthew's place and indeed hope to stay there again at some time in the future. Thanks Matthew!
