this little cabin had literally everything you could want, and a truly complete kitchen to do all your cooking. our dog loved the backyard, and our hosts were very responsive, courteous, and kind. I appreciated that they had a covered parking spot just for us, in the even left out some bus cards for us to use. I honestly could not be happier to stay there for a few weeks while we were house hunting in LA.
the light rail does indeed go right by the unit on the far side of the yard, but we did not mind the occasional noise at all.
lastly, the location was wonderful. just a short drive from downtown south Pasadena and a coffee shop within a short walk.
