Dorothy's suite is perfect for a quiet stay near Pasadena for an individual or a couple.
My wife and I were in town for the Rose Bowl game. We stayed with Dorothy on New Year's Eve (arriving around 4pm) and left on New Year's Day (left around 7am).
The space is a master bedroom + full bathroom, with free WiFi + a TV, and access to the kitchen if needed (we ate dinner there that we brought from a restaurant, and I'm sure we could've used the coffee maker or tea kettle had we needed it / stayed longer).
The room feels very private / separate from the rest of the house, which is nice. You enter through the laundry room, and once inside one door goes into the kitchen / main house and the other door goes into the Suite.
This worked perfectly for us as we are quiet, low-key guests and needed a clean, safe place to sleep for one night. Dorothy's place is immaculate, with a brand new bathroom & kitchen. The bed was comfortable for two tall people (I'm 6'3" and my wife is 5'9"), and the space was plenty big enough. Plus Dorothy's very nice and was flexible to meet us to give us the key to check in (after which we were free to come & go whenever), and her neighborhood is very nice and pretty, nestled under the mountains.
I would certainly recommend staying here to anyone visiting Pasadena (about a 10-15min drive) or LA (about 30-40 mins without traffic), who wants to stay in a quiet, clean, safe place.
I would NOT recommend this to people who want to party, since Dorothy's home is very well-kept and I don't think it would be respectful of her space to party in it.
Thank you very much to Dorothy for everything!
