This is a lovely house just north of Old Town Pasadena. My family (3 adults, 2 children) stayed in the home for four nights to attend a family wedding nearby. The house is secure, with a automatic gate at the end of the driveway. The bedrooms are tastefully-decorated and all more-or-less the same size. The kitchen and larger bathroom have been very recently updated, which was a pleasant surprise. New appliances in the kitchen, and one of those tower showers that can spray in multiple directions. The most unexpected surprise (I might have missed this in the ad) was the lovely gazebo in the front yard! Even though the temperature in Pasadena was quite hot when we were there (mid-90s), it was a great space to hang out and enjoy the outdoors.
In terms of location, it is in a residential neighborhood that is mostly quiet, though there was some loud music for a bit on one of the evenings. There is some traffic noise from the nearby freeway, though it was not excessive. There is a grocery store within a five minute walk. Old Town Pasadena is about a 15 minute walk from the house, though it does require walking over a freeway overpass.
Overall, we were very pleased with the house, and would rent it again if we returned to the area. Given the size of the house, amenities, and location, we thought it was a great deal as well.
