Perfect studio pad for this grandmother visiting family nearby for a few weeks. I was very busy with family, so mostly used studio to change clothes, take showers and enjoy peaceful sleeping. The courtyard outside studio with water feature is beautiful :).
Neighborhood is very walkable and I felt safe exploring South Pasadena on my own. This is a residential neighborhood, and studio is behind a gate and steps away from the host's home, so I would keep this in mind if you have experienced other AirBnBs with texting interaction only and prefer that relationship. For my trip, it was comforting to know she was in the nearby home and Carol is very generous with her outdoor courtyard if you would like to relax with some takeout or read a book.
