Wonderful Experience
My 80 plus year old parents stayed at this VRBO during the Thanksgiving holiday. It was the perfect location. Very clean, central heating worked great, incredible bathroom, comfortable bed and perfect small kitchen with coffee maker. The hospitality was also fantastic. They are hoping to stay here again on their next visit.

Just far enough away from the heart of LA
This beautiful guesthouse, set in a quiet residential neighborhood, has easy access to Altadena's relaxed local vibe and surrounding foothills as well as the many attractions of Pasadena and downtown Los Angeles. My sister and I, both seniors, spent several comfortable days visiting my adult daughter who lives nearby, enjoying local restaurants and parklands, but also Pasadena's gardens and LA's grand art museum. Our host Tony was gracious, friendly, and responsive to every need. We will certainly return.
