My family and I had a comfortable and enjoyable stay at Mimi's home. She was a very gracious and responsive host. The home is not too far from both downtown LA and Pasadena We liked the fact that we did not have homes too close to us and it had ample parking. The view from the balcony was beautiful, you can sit here and watch the trains, the bustle of the town below, and enjoy the peaceful sounds of songbirds. The house was decorated tastefully and had a peaceful feel. It had all the amenities we needed and well maintained. I would definitely recommend staying here.
