Van-Martin and Barry are exceptional hosts! There were very quick to respond with any questions, and sent a helpful video and welcome message prior to check in. The home was located in an ideal part of Pasadena to walk around the beautiful neighborhood of Cal Tech and The Huntington. Yes, the home was equipped with all the creature comforts for an optional stay, however the real story is the beauty and serenity of the outdoor spaces, two patios to enjoy the outdoors in privacy and shade. I felt so safe and secluded in this treasure of a home. Van-Martin and Barry made me feel like a treasured guest!
