I had a truly wonderful stay with Meena and Bryan, who made me feel like family yet gave me plenty of privacy. They are cultured, well-traveled, and interested in many things, and our conversations were engaging. And their home - a lovely, well-appointed Greene and Greene cottage -- was a delight. When they learned I was in Pasadena in large part to see architecture, they shared volumes from their library - some of which had their house in them - with me.
The suite itself couldn't have been more comfortable and thoughtfully organized. Earlier reviews that describe the quality and variety of food, drink, and necessities & niceties are all spot on -- I felt well indulged, and Meena even provided warm muffins and tea breads for breakfast each day, a much-appreciated extra.
I left their home wishing I could have stayed longer and feeling that I'd made new friends. Oh, and did I mention this was my very first Airbnb experience? Meena and Bryan have set a very high bar for the rest of my California vacation!
