Cozy Silverlake Home with City Views

Our wonderful hosts made us feel welcome the moment we walked through the door. Recently renovated with views of downtown from the deck that sports a new gas grill made for a nice dining-in experience. Only minutes from the 101 and a short walk up and then down the steps to Sunset Junction, our location provided a multitude of options for dining out and activities.

I can't say enough good things about Steve's and Patrick's place. And maybe I shouldn't, because this wonderful urban paradise should be kept a secret. But then again it would be unfair not to give other people a chance to live there, as, unfortunately, we can't be there all year round. The house is in the cutest little neighborhood, sporting a surprising variety of all kinds of beautiful exotic plants attracting hummingbirds and finches with the skyscrapers of DTLA in the background. The apartment is equipped with everything you can wish for; it features a fantastic deck with a killer view, kitchen appliances are modern and squeaky clean, the bed is very comfy, so is the sofa. Steve and Patrick were extremely welcoming and friendly (as were their cute dogs), and they even let us use their washing machine. Really, and I'm not saying this lightly, fewer places I've lived at during my life so far have felt as much as a real home.
