Cecilia is a wonderful host. She communicated with me before the booking and made sure that my dietary restrictions are accommodated. The house is located in a nice, quite neighborhood of Pasadena and has a great backyard. I was able to sleep with windows open and felt totally safe. Having a cozy bedroom and a private bathroom all to myself was a huge plus, especially after long conference days. Full access to the kitchen was very convenient for breakfast and supper.
There are beautiful museums in the area and you could walk or get an affordable ride to one of those (Cecilia made a couple of great recommendations).
Both Cecilia & Antero made me feel at home away from home, and I would definitely recommend their place to family and friends. Would love to visit again if an opportunity presents itself.
