This studio is conveniently located close to the best places in Pasadena. It is in a relatively quiet neighborhood, super close to the beautiful San Gabriel mountains and Eaton Canyon. The neighborhood has wide, hilly streets that are not busy, and is great for walking/running/biking. The studio itself does have some bugs, being close to the mountains and not the best sealed. If you have severe arachnophobia, you might want to look somewhere else. Wendy, the host, was incredibly nice and offered us several different helpful bug-killing products throughout our stay. She is always quick to respond and pleasant to interact with. Her cat, Zen, was the nicest cat you'll ever meet! Such a joy to have her around on the property. Good WIFI.
