We stayed for 12 days at Mike'Ilda's place, and it was the perfect choice for our needs. The guesthouse was in the back of a big garden with lots of fruit trees (so we could have fresh figs, tomatoes every day). There was a large swimming pool available, and also a pool room. The guest house was very suitable with one bedroom with comfortable bed, kitchen, living area and nice bathroom/shower.
Location was perfect. Very close to Glendale offices and shops, but far enough to be very quiet. Also ideal for jogging (quiet streets going up and down) and good for hiking (Brand park just one block away).
Finally, Mike was very helpful and replied very quickly to any question we had (not many as everything was quite clear). When we arrived for our 2 week stay, there were breakfast items in the refrigerator, coffee, etc. and laundry detergent. So we didn't have to run out for shopping right away. The small dog was also very friendly (stopped by in the evening to say hi).
I can certainly recommend this place for anyone in the area.
