A resort-style heated pool, jacuzzi hot tub, and fire pit make evenings in this Glendale apartment hard to leave. When you're ready to head inside, the building's arcade games room adds a playful touch that works just as well for groups as it does for solo travellers unwinding after a long day. The main bedroom opens onto a balcony with mountain and city views, and free on-site parking takes one more thing off your mind – no small consideration in greater Phoenix.
