Lia & Garry are the most amazing hosts!! The home is lovely and in a fantastic neighborhood with wonderful views of the mountains. There's a large variety of restaurants within a couple blocks walking distance. I really enjoyed how laidback and comfortable their neighborhood is. I always felt safe, and it was a great break from L.A.'s fast pace.

Lia made sure to keep the guest fridge stocked with breakfast foods, including hard boiled eggs, greek yogurt, and these WONDERFUL stuffed croissants from a local bakery, among other food and drinks.

Their hospitality can't be beat. I always felt welcomed, and they truly made me feel like I was more than just a "guest". They were extremely helpful with any question I had and offered numerous suggestions on local things to do. They really seemed to enjoy helping their guests in whatever way they could.

I came out to Pasadena to take the CA bar exam and would highly recommend staying here. The house was quiet and the room had a desk, so it was very easy to study. In the morning I'd often sit outside and drink coffee while enjoying the cool morning air and looking at the wonderful mountain views.

Overall, I can't say enough good things about this couple. Do yourself a favor and stay with them if you're doing airbnb in Pasadena!!
