I spent a month here to write my PhD thesis. The work desk and chair were not super comfortable, but they got the job done. The internet was fine for my needs. Did a lot of biking in Griffith Park and on Mulholland Drive, but the traffic on some of the roads in the area is a little treacherous. Not really a walkable location by my NYC standards, although if you're willing to walk about 20 minutes there is a lot to see, do, and eat. Beautiful patio and backyard for entertaining and relaxing. We had a few barbecues on the front patio and a few dinner parties with a small group of people. The kitchen is big and workable if you like to cook. Awesome balcony in the main room for soaking up the sun during the day, with beautiful views. We had Whole Foods deliver groceries without a hitch, also had some supplies delivered from Amazon. The property is well gated, so felt secure. The garage is very narrow, so expect a tight squeeze if you are parking there. Watch out for the coyotes!
