This is my go to stay in LA area. Rooms are well-decorated and spacious. Great location with views from most rooms. Away from the road up on an hill in South Pasadena and onsite parking. Friendly proprietor, happy hour daily, breakfast on site (fixed menu). Could use USB ports or ways to connect devices easier. But small inconvenience in exchange for the privacy and ambience.

Stevie

Disliked: Staff & service
The room was small but clean. There was a couch which was very useful. We couldn't get the TV to work. That was disappointing. The most challenging thing about the property was the driveway. Its a one car only driveway and can be intimidating to some. The Breakfast was not complimentary if you book through Expedia. That said there are plenty of quality breakfast spots .5 miles away. For the price was good through Expedia.
