We went to the BTS concert at the Rose Bowl stadium and to Negative Gemini at the Lodge Room, so if you wanna be near Pasadena, this is a perfect location (also, only 4-5 stops from Chinatown & Union Station by the golden line). This area is very neighborhoody and residential. Nick's place is very clean and cozy. He's friendly and Robert his dog is very cute. You have your own coffee machine inside your room as well as some snacks and bottles of water, which is a very nice detail. It also has a nice patio. I recommend wholeheartedly!
