Found this place by accident, looking to stay in the Pasadena area for a night. Usually use hotels, so unsure what to expect with a B&B. Price was much lower than comparable hotels (I think summer is somewhat of an off-season here). I also think we were in the worst room in the house - no real view, a touch smaller than others we saw through open doors, on the third floor - and it was still a wonderful place to stay, with plenty of atmosphere, cleanliness, great decorations, everything worked perfectly, a nice breakfast, even a darn happy hour, complete with wine! Communication from the owner was immediate upon confirmation, and answered my questions right away. Lots more little things to be pleased about, suggest others go there and see it for themselves. I would definitely recommend, and if I need to be in Pasadena again Arroyo Vista will be the first place I look!.
