The gorgeous view of the Glendale hills and, from certain points, downtown L.A., enchanted me every day. The pool was too cold for me in November, but the sun was plenty warm enough for lying on one of the many super-comfy lounge chairs and listening to the water slosh while I caught up on reading. My bed was also very comfortable, and I loved the decor of the whole house. It somehow has a very feminine energy. Vesta was welcoming and always available to help.
A caveat -- there's not a lot within walking distance, though the hike down to Starbucks/CVS and back up again is great. Have a car or be prepared for lots of Lyfting, and enjoy the tranquility that's the trade-off.
