I stayed in Michal's guest house for over a month while I was a fellow at the Huntington Library and I can say it was a truly wonderful experience. The guest house is spacious, inviting, and private, and Michal took extra care to make sure I had all the comforts of home (toiletries, cooking utensils, etc.). The guest house also looks out onto Michal's gorgeous garden filled with exotic plants and wildlife. It is wonderful place to rest and reflect.

As a host, Michal was always available when I needed any help, driving directions, or recommendations about local businesses and restaurants. His enthusiasm, friendliness, intelligence, and great sense of humor made him the perfect host and a great guide to the Pasadena area.

You can't do better than Michal's guest house for affordability, privacy, and a gracious and accommodating host. I strongly recommend booking a stay, especially for a long term.
