Nick was super communicative about the stay and his spot is located within walking distance to tons of great places in Pasadena.
The space is as advertised and spacious, he had a friend meet me (which helped as I came in late and it was dark with the time change).
The room itself can get stuffy (I booked in the midst of another California heat wave) but there is a responsive AC unit and fans to keep you cool. There was also bottled water chilling in the fridge and I appreciate hosts who look out for their guests.
I did not get to park in one of the four guest parking spots on the second night as I got back at 9pm (first come first serve, as I was informed of) but there was plenty of street parking and the area at night was safe. Neighbors in the morning were also very friendly whether out for a jog or out walking their dogs.
Overall another good Airbnb experience.
