We booked this primarily for the location, close to our family in Pasadena. It is a basic apartment that met our needs of having a place to sleep and eat a quick breakfast each day. Dishes will be as clean as the previous tenant left them, so that's a wild card. Quiet neighborhood and reasonably comfortable beds. The futon "sofa" is extremely uncomfortable to sit on, so if you're planning to spend a lot of time here or want to curl up and watch movies, I would look elsewhere. For us it worked out fine.
