I really enjoyed my month long stay here! Both Maria and Lizet were very helpful and responsive throughout my stay.
Prior to moving in, I was a bit worried about the barking dogs that some other reviews had mentioned - I am grateful to report that I only heard dogs barking one time my entire here! I'm not sure what adjustment was made but if you are experiencing the same concerns and my review is the most recent one, you can rest assured that something was done to help the problem.
The space is very clean and functional - perfect for one person.
The kitchen has a hot plate and microwave (no oven) for cooking basic meals and all of the pots/pans/silverware/dinnerware you could need are stocked in the cabinets. Big sink with no garbage disposal. No dishwasher.
Wifi is a good (not fast, not slow), TV works well and is connected to a Fire Stick.
Full sized bed is very comfy and Maria was sweet enough to supply me with fresh linens halfway through my stay!
Bathroom is small but functional, shower/toilet are separated from the main space with a door, sink/mirror is in the main space.
AC is very effective - I stayed during summer months where it was 90+ degrees most days, the space stayed very cool and comfortable when the AC was on.
I did my laundry a few blocks down at a laundromat.
Only 4/5 instead of 5/5 star aspect of this listing is the location! It is right off of a large main road in Altadena, not many coffee shops/restaurants are walkable (a big/well stocked grocery store is, though). Altadena and Pasadena are neighboring cities - this area of Altadena is less "ritzy" than the more "iconic" areas of Pasadena, (downtown, south lake avenue), which are a 10-15 minute drive away. That being said, I never felt unsafe during my stay here.
I hope this review is helpful!
