My stay at the cottage in Silverlake got off to a bumpy start--it turned out that we had been sent access instructions for the wrong unit (there are several rentals on the property). It was nearly midnight when we checked in, and we went into a larger upstairs unit, rather than the cottage, to find that it hadn't been cleaned. I texted Tim and he responded immediately, despite the late hour. I sent him pictures, but given how late it was, neither of us noticed that it was the wrong unit until the next morning. But Tim told us where to find clean sheets and offered to refund one night's stay. The next morning I talked with him again and we sorted out what had happened; we then moved downstairs to the cottage for the second night of our stay. Tim was gracious, helpful, and responsive throughout, and I can now say that both units are very nice and comfortable, and the Silverlake location is great. We also really appreciated the thoughtful touches--Keurig coffee makers with instructions posted to them, soap and bath products in the bathrooms, comfortable bedding, and well stocked kitchens. I would definitely stay there again, and now I know about a nice two-bedroom unit up the stairs that would be a great option for a larger group.

The cottage was in a great location. Parking was difficult at times. It was super clean. The kitchen is adorable. I would definitely stay here again.

The cottage was adorable ! It was perfect for a quick weekend trip to LA !

Nice place in a nice neighborhood ,calm and cool !!

The cottage was all is said and more. It was located near all kinds of great restaurants and places to go. My girlfriend and I had a incredible time. We will definitely be returning. The host were very and informative.

My wife and I spent three wonderful days at this very nice cottage. It was a good size for us and a perfect location. We were in L. A. to visit our grandson who is currently being treated at the Children’s Hospital of Los Angeles. The cottage is less than a mile away from the hospital, so we were able to walk there each day. It is located on the side of a hill and so to get there you have to walk down a staircase that covers two stories. If you can make that trip, the experience is well worth the climb. The cottage itself is indeed “adorable”. Robin and Tim have been able to preserve a 1950’s feel, yet it has been thoroughly updated inside. The bathroom and kitchen are in great shape and have everything you need. Two of the three nights we fixed dinner at the cottage. One night we ate outside on the small patio in front of the cottage. Very nice experience. Robin and Tim are great hosts. During our stay both of them went out of their way to come by and check in on us to make sure we were comfortable in their place. Robin was particularly helpful setting up the reservation and provided useful information about the area and how to get there. We would certainly stay there again and would recommend it to anyone, especially those visiting the Children’s Hospital and the Kaiser Hospital located nearby.

Charming cottage, thoughtfully appointed everything you could need was there and where you would expect it to be. I found Robyn and Tim responsive, informative and upfront. We had our dogs in tow and Tim mentioned that the neighbors had dogs and to be aware of a little between the fence communication which was nice to know what we were getting into. As it turned out not a issue but I appreciated them being up front about the house. We had a perfect weekend enjoying on meals on the patio and thou the homes in the area are all very close together it was private. The landscaping and lay out really made it feel like a oasis all our own. Look forward to our next visit.

I absolutely LOVE The Cottage at Silver Lake. I come every time in LA. Accommodations are great. I feel at home and it is cozy and roomy. Silver Lake is hip and fun with great places to eat and drink. And Robin and Tim are so nice and helpful. Oh, and very affordable!

this was a great stay in the cottage: very clean, cute, convenient and well located; Tim & Robin have been very helpful. Many thanks

Make yourself at home in this cottage...it's easy to do. You will wish it was yours. It is clearly loved by the owners who must want you to love it just as much. The location allows for easy access to the neighborhood treasures of Silverlake and all of LA. You can walk to bars, cafés, restaurants, shops , and the hillside streets that host some of LA's architectural treats. It's easy to park on the street. The patio is idyllic - you will want to relax in its shady nook and spend an hour or two with some wine, cheese, and perhaps, a book or your best friend or both. The cottage has everything you need- a complete kitchen equipped for fixing a snack or a feast. The linens, toiletries, and electronics are on par with any fine hotel. Select the cottage for a weekend, a week,or a month or longer...you will be in no rush to leave but will long to return . I did just that.

A perfect spot for our holiday stay. Clean, comfortable and private. Well appointed with everything we needed and more. And the location! Walkable L.A.-- who knew?

This cottage is charming and clean. It is well kept and has a nice patio and landscaping. The stairs to and from the cottage are very steep. There is a small kitchen, no dishwasher, a full size bed, sofa bed in the living room. Bathroom is in the bedroom. The major problem with our visit was barking dogs behind the property. They barked all night and during the day while we were there. Not sure if it is an ongoing problem, but for us it was..not much sleep.

We can highly recommend this lovely place to anyone who is looking for a quite and private place in Los Angeles. We stayed in Silverlake cottage for one week with our little daughter and felt home just from the first moment.Shops, Cafès, supermarkets - everything you need is nearby, the neighbourhood is quite and beautiful, the cottage is like an oasis and we especially liked the way the place is furnished, we missed nothing. It's just the opposite of an anonymous hotel. When we arrived after a long and exhausting flight Robin and Tim welcomed us like friends, they even provided nice food. More than that they helped us with any question we had. They are perfect hosts and they made it easy for us to feel comfortable.

Cottage is clean, cute, comfortable and quaint. Owner is very nice and accomodating to work with. My one surprise (not the owner's fault) was the 14% tax. I understand the need for taxes, but 14%! Way too much!

This cottage is wonderful, I had the chance to stay here while I was getting settled with school. Its perfect for those who don't have access to transportation. The owners are also great and make the stay wonderful, especially Robin who was wonderful and helpful. I will be recommending this cottage to family during the holidays. If your looking for somewhere safe to stay in LA, close to main attractions this the place for you. You wont find people as kind and good hearted to rent from than the owners of this property.
