Thoroughly enjoyed my 5-day stay at Sanborn Guest House. Gary and Jaime have thought of everything you need for your stay. They are wonderful hosts and really knowledgeable about the local area. I stayed in the Sanborn Room, which is very comfortable and decorated with eclectic items from Gary and Jaime's travels. It's good having the separate sitting area with a lounge, a couple of chairs, and a coffee table, as well as access to the shared kitchen. The off-street secure parking is a bonus as street parking in the area is very tight. The location is top-notch - the street itself is really quiet and safe but it's only a block away from Santa Monica Boulevarde so only a few minutes walk to a diverse range of quality restaurants, cafes and shops. Los Feliz and the lake are also within walking distance. DTLA, Hollywood, Griffith Observatory/Park, Dodger Stadium are all within 10-15 min drive. Would definitely stay again.

On a hill so if you are mobility impaired may need to consider a flatter more accessible alternative, otherwise it’s an excellent location.

I was traveling alone and looking for secured parking. I was very happy with the walkable location, loads of places to stash all my "necessities," clean shower, and comfortable bed. I would recommend to a woman traveling alone (or a couple) who want an excellent location. The organic food store nearby was a great find for fresh and cooked foods. The outdoor area was welcoming and well maintained.

THE BEST stay I've ever had in La. The host was so friendly and knowledgeable. The place itself was private, clean, cute, and a perfect spot for if you're traveling solo. There was every amenity one could dream of; heater, a/c, tv, parking, kitchen use, etc. The vibe here was truly amazing and I looked forward to heading home for the night. I would recommend this place to anyone. It's a great location in the heart of Silverlake with lots of shops and food spots in walking distance. 11/10!

The room was quite comfortable .David was very helpful in making suggestions where things were. The room was near to everything. Appreciate the off street parking. The yard area was very nice as well. Too bad the microwave didn’t work. The room could use a deep cleaning around windows and baseboards. A toilet paper roll holder would be nice.
