My wife and I enjoyed three lovely nights at Faisal's guest house. The house itself is just right for a couple and is very well maintained. With the guest house set back away from the main house you get a great sense of privacy. The bucolic setting overlooking a well wooded ravine belies the fact that you are just minutes away from Pasadena's museums and old town attractions. Although we live in the greater L.A. area, traffic to Pasadena can be challenging. That's why we decided to stay a few nights in the area and avoid the hassle of L.A. traffic. The guest house is only about 500-600 square feet but it has all of the amenities you need. The open floorplan is light and airy and the deck overlooking the ravine is a great place to enjoy an early evening cocktail. The atmosphere is very serene...no traffic or airplane noise...just the local birds hanging out in the abundant oak trees. Not sure when we'll be returning to the Pasadena area but if and when we do, we would happily stay at this guest house again.
