Carmen's place was tidy, clean, and as advertised. Her responses to bookings and questions are lightning fast, too, which is much appreciated when on the go. The room did have a bit more road noise than expected until the wee hours of the morning, especially noticeable as the windows needed to be cracked to keep the room temperate. Very nice to have a private bath and the shared kitchenette was a bonus, especially for the price. Do note that checkout time at 11am is no joke. Carmen, Joe, and their pets penetrated my back with silent icy dagger stares as I exited stage left across the porch at 11:12am, apparently waiting for me to vacate before they hurried away in their SUV for their weekend adventures. Nonetheless, it a great option for a quick getaway to Pasadena. Thanks, Carmen and Joe!
