Mary's place was as described if not better! I stayed there when I took the CA Bar exam. It was the perfect place to be. It was quiet, relaxing, and had everything I needed.
There is a park across the street with basketball hoops, tennis courts, baseball field, and other activities. It was approximately a 15 min drive to the Pasadena Convention Center during morning rush hour.
