I booked this spot because i knew this part of Echo Park well, and knew it was ideal for our stay/purposes. While I knew I was renting a studio cottage off from the main house, I didn’t realize until booking that the house was also being rented by Airbnb users—this wasn’t a problem at all, but something i would have liked to know beforehand. The lemon trees in the backyard were the highlight of my trip as they are gorgeous, but here are some things to note: January is one of California’s “colder” months and it was impossible to keep the cottage heated (high ceilings) with the tiny, old space heater; even using all the extra blankets provided, I was shivering the entire night which I was not expecting! The gazebo area could have been cleaner so we did not use it, and additionally there was only one coffee/tea mug which was not a deal breaker but it would have been nice to have at least two working mugs! (To be fair, there were “two” but one was cracked and made from glass and broke immediately when we tried to pour hot water for tea; bring your own coffee as there was none). I would book again in the warmer months and just know to bring a couple of extra amenities. Overall a good stay, and within walking distance to Pollen which is an excellent breakfast spot. The neighborhood is quiet and easy to park in; no need to be afraid of the hills, though they might be an interesting challenge to those not used to them!
