Tom is a great host and the place was very convenient as we were spending most of our time in Glendale and near Griffith Park. The area was safe and a two minute walk to the Main Street where I grabbed breakfast at Dunkin Donuts each morning. The two bedrooms upstairs were very quiet and the downstairs was very family friendly. Luckily we didn't experience much jet lag despite having gotten off a 15 hour flight. Parking on the street could be difficult at night but we were always able to find a space and Tom also offered for us to park in his driveway. Tom also came by when we left to show the kids his newly adopted chihuahua!
