I had to come to Burbank for a quick trip and was lucky enough to find this wonderful gem! Check in was simple and both hosts (Terry and Basia) were friendly and accommodating. After I got settled into my room, which was a simple but lovely and clean, I was able to speak with Terry and Basia and they gave me some helpful suggestions on where to have dinner and some neat things to see and do around Burbank. It was obvious that they were very knowledgeable about the area and genuinely excited to share with me their insights. I was only in town briefly so I wasn’t able to explore much, but if you are planning on staying a few days (or even one night) Terry and Basia can help point you in the right direction to maximize your stay.
I went to bed early and was surprised with how quiet the neighborhood was. They live at the end of a cul-de-sac so there is no traffic noise and is up in the hills so no city noise either. The bed was comfy, as were the pillows, and I love sleeping with a fan so the ceiling fan above the bed was a huge plus for me.
After a great night sleep I woke to the delightful sounds of birds chirping and made my way to the breakfast nook, which is a small room within the guest house. It is nothing fancy, but has a Keurig Coffee pot with various flavor selections, a small refrigerator, and 2 stools to sit and drink your coffee as you overlook the gorgeous backyard. The morning I was there was very pleasant, so I took my coffee outside and sat on one of the chairs right out on the porch. I have attached pictures of my view that morning with a picture of the breakfast nook.
Speaking of the backyard, it was amazing. It is as if they brought a little bit of the islands here to the mainland. Everything was lush and green with a sparkling saltwater pool in the middle. I didn’t swim this trip, but next time I come I would definitely take advantage of the pool as well as the outdoor BBQ.
I would highly recommend this place to anyone that is looking to stay in Burbank. The price is reasonable, the guest house was lovely, the hosts were amazing, and a better view to wake up to would be hard to find!
