I’m not an early riser, but the view from Blake’s home had me up before dawn each day to catch the spectacular dawn sky. Sitting on the deck with a hot cup of coffee, watching the rising sun color the sky was a highlight of our stay. The night views of Los Angeles are equally fabulous. Both these views are made even more enjoyable by Blake’s lovely interior spaces, his artwork, and the thoughtfully conceived landscaping. For us, Blake’s is the place to stay when in Los Angeles. On a side note, if you enjoy running or taking long walks, be sure to visit the Hollywood Reservoir, less than a mile away and a world away from the rush of the city.
