The room was really nice and comfortable. I didn’t get an email with the door code and arrived late. It was hard to get the code to get in. At breakfast I was at the table 20-30 minutes before someone asked if I wanted breakfast. There was no one to ask or a menu or a bell. Just nothing.
Also, there are items out in dishes that look available to guests. Be careful there is a cost to all the items. It just felt like everything you did there was an extra charge for everything.
Overall, we enjoyed our stay. A couple of items, though. 1) our room wasn't made up when we arrived at check-in time. We picked up our key and went to the room, but it had not been cleaned since the last guest. 2) the Television was disconnected and didn't work. If they don't want it used, they should remove it. Texted for clean towels, but they had not arrived by 5:00 PM.
The breakfast was very good and was served promptly.
Unique 10 room guesthouse converted from a beautiful Pasadena home. Great location, fine breakfast, quiet and a wonderful staff. Our 11# shitzu felt right at home. Highly recommend!

A gem of a B&B in South Pasadena. Convenient to downtown LA, Huntington Gardens, other local attractions. Easy walkkng to the light rail station and the nearby arroyo park. Great breakfasts and a chance to meet interesting fellow travelers.
This is a darling bed and breakfast run by a family in South Pasadena. I love how home-y the place feels. My room was very clean, and I was pleased to find out that the TV came with Amazon Prime! I arrived just in time for the happy hour, which entails a complementary glass of wine. I would love to come back and do my own writer's residency here.
I love this bed and breakfast!
The common rooms are very cozy and look just like the photos in the listing. All of the rooms are different and all are super cute.
The breakfast is in a lovely room and is quite good. Throughout the day, water, coffee and small snacks are available. During our stay wine looked available all day too.
It is a family run business. It is lovely to see the family photos all over the interior. Every person we encountered whether staff or other guests were very nice.
There is a large covered porch in the front that, on a good-weather day is nice to hang out on.
I look forward to my next visit there!
Would have gave a 5 star rating but the other guests of this tiny bnd had no regard for quiet hours. Came in loud after 10 pm and was woken up at 4:30am by a domestic dispute. At breakfast they tried to get me to pay the property fee again and said breakfast was not included. Was looking forward to staying again cuz it’s cute and cozy but can’t risk my sleep.
Unique and beautiful, convenient to everything, and dog friendly! Plus…. KILLER waffles for breakfast, and delightful staff. What more could you ask for?
The whole facility was charming and cozy. The room was comfortable and quiet. The bathroom was spacious and well appointed. All-in-all a delightful experience. We have already made plans to return!
This hotel was adorable. I loved the neighborhood. It was my first stay in that part of Pasadena and I loved the opportunity to explore. We only stayed one night, but other than the driveway (That added to the charm a little) that was a little scary for someone not used to a one way road. It was amazing. Beautiful native trees surrounded the property and gave it a relaxed out of the way feeling. The hose was a great conversion and I could see it being fun to stay in for a week and enjoy the beautiful lobby. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend it or stay there again.
