For the purpose of our stay the house was adequate. However, the online pictures look much nicer than the real thing. The pool is ok, but the pictures make the outside area seem much bigger. Also, the light in the main hall bathroom was broken, making it a very dark room.

Perfect LA Retreat

This home in Pasadena was a great location to explore everything that LA has to offer. Nestled on a quiet street it was accessible to all the tourist hot spots, also close to the grocery store and gas stations. We enjoyed a perfect day at the homes pool which provided much relief from the California sun! Gina was an amazing host, super responsive and available! Would highly recommend this home

A delight in SoCal

The house was in a quiet neighborhood with cool eats and coffee a quick walk away. After a long day in L.A. sites and traffic, it was so nice to get the hot tub going. There was plenty of room to spread out and recharge. Host was very attentive and responsive with any questions I had.
