Upon arriving, free parking was on the street, but super close to the apartment. We arrived late and there were still plenty of open spots which is a plus.
The check-in process was easy. The apartment was very clean and much more spacious than we expected. Definitely a comfortable stay for two people. There were other guests; however we didn't really run into them b/c our room had a private bathroom right across the hall.
It gets cold around New Years in Pasadena so the host was kind enough to turn on the heater for the whole apartment overnight. This place is in the heart of Pasadena with tons of places to eat or hang out close by; They are just a walk or short car ride away.
Catherine was a good host and I would definitely come back here again. Highly recommended!
