I grew up in the area and my stay at Catherine's was everything I hoped it'd be. Even though there were 3 other guests at the time, I barely ran into them and they were all quiet and respectful. Self check-in/out and baggage storage were very convenient with the electronic lock. It's a very easy walk (15-20 min) to all the happenings in Old Town Pasadena on Colorado and Lake, and parking on the cross-street was easy to find, even at night. I'll definitely stay at one of Catherine's listings when I visit again!
