We enjoyed our stay at Joe's place in Pasadena. The apartment was clean and nicely, simply decorated. Joe was very easy to coordinate with. He always responded very quickly over text with any questions I had. He was also able to accomodate a slightly later checkout, which was much appreciated. The location is near to the main drag of Pasadena, and for the price, it's an unbeatable deal. The noise from the highway is quite loud, so definitely bring earplugs if you are a light sleeper. I would definitely stay here again.
