This was the perfect place for us as I was studying at the Huntington Library. It's in a decent neighborhood, a 12 to 15 minute drive to the Library and Botanical Gardens, and closer to Old Pasadena. The apartment is roomier than the pictures indicate (guessing around 800 square feet). It's not brand new, and not a hotel, but the residence is clean and full of charm. It's situation on the main level of a up/down duplex in an early 19th c. house. If you want a comfortable home-away-from home that is tastefully decorated and generously supplied with enough towels and a few kitchen essentials, this is your place. We were very at home here. Thanks so much Gayle, for your warm hospitality!
