I traveled alone, so I had plenty of space in this comfortable place in walking distance of the Huntington Library and Gardens. If you don't mind sharing a bathroom with up to two others, J's place is perfect for a stay in Pasadena - in walking distance to Caltech and the City centre and close enough to public transport to central L.A. J and her husband are very kind plus super quickly responding. Also, I got some recommendations by her husband about what to do in L.A. I wouldn't have known about otherwise. I would recommend staying at their place.
