We had a wonderful experience across the board with this stay. Michelle and Barry were exceptionally communicative and accommodating, providing a comfortable home in LA for some international wedding guests. Michelle worked with me to ensure that their check-in process went smoothly, and that they had all the information needed to make full use of the amenities and local area. Arriving to a gift basket of coffee, fruits and other treats was a delightful surprise, particularly after a very long flight.

The space itself is beautifully built out, and very comfortable. A canvas shade sail stretches over the sizable private brick courtyard, providing a cool place to relax and enjoy a cup of tea. The ambiance is charming, slightly rustic, and very inviting. It feels well-considered and tasteful, rather than curated or contrived.

The house itself is well-appointed, comfortable and enjoys a lot of natural light. While helping our guests check in, we commented that it's a place we'd want to consider ourselves if we ever did an LA staycation. The fold-out futon was great for the kids, and the full kitchen makes it suitable for longer stays.

Overall, this was an unqualified Airbnb win and we're happy to recommend Michelle and Barry's little oasis of calm to anyone looking for a great place to stay in the Silverlake area.
