The lower level of Laura's townhouse is located conveniently on Hyperion in Silver Lake. It is a convenient 10 minute walk to Trader Joes and a number of bars and restaurants in the area. Laura's apartment offers a kitchenette and washer/dryer which are very convenient. Street parking was very easy right in front of the unit. WiFi speeds were strong for two people to be able to video conference at the same time.
The biggest issues were:
- Cleanliness, the cleaner missed a lot of areas between the previous guest and us
- Ants, we needed to buy traps and spray
- Noise, Hyperion is a busy road, so if you are a light sleeper, bring ear plugs and a white noise machine. You can also hear everything from the unit above you (movies, working out, etc)
This apartment is best for someone who wants to be located on the west side of Silver Lake (towards Los Feliz/Franklin Hills) and who is typically out of the unit most of the day and doesn't plan to do much cooking in the unit.
