Staying at Barbara's home made our trip to Pasadena for a wedding an absolutely perfect one. My wife, two young kids, and their grandmother stayed at the house. This size group was very comfortable in the space with some room to spare. We were greeted right on time by Barbara's friend (she was out of town). A quick tour was provided, but not even needed as the operating instructions on site explain how everything (like TV and hot tub) works in a very clear way - it very well written and easy to understand. The home is beautiful, very clean and comfortable. It is exactly as her listing describes. Everything works. I know that's an kind of an odd comment, but it worth mentioning. From the pool and spa, AC, to the TV (with Apple tv/netflix/hulu/satellite/bluray) to everything in the kitchen, to washer/dryer ----Lets be honest, its difficult to keep a home fully operational, and its crystal clear to me that Barbara goes to great effort and expense to keep her home and all its amenities in perfect functional condition. It much more than that though - I would describe her home as on the higher end - with extras like custom cabinets creating a very usable galley kitchen, wolf range and other high end appliances, as well as beautiful mature landscaping. If we go to Pasadena again I will not hesitate to stay at Barbara's home. Thank you for having us as your guests.
