Fanchon and Jean-Pierre are wonderful host. I found a real gem for the value. Their back cottage is very comfortable with basic accommodations. It is very clean and welcoming. I had a beautiful view of the San Gaberial's. It is quiet, peaceful, and resides in a wonderful neighborhood. There home is deep enough in Altadena to be off the beaten path, but minutes away from Old Town Pasadena and anywhere else you may want to travel.
They have a beautiful garden/backyard outside the cottage window facing North. I sat outside everynight just to enjoy the serenity. I was able to sit with my door open and enjoy the evening as it cooled down.
The room is simple with ample closet space if necessary. There is a small refrigerator, microwave and water boiling kettle. The bed is very comfortable and a nice bathroom with a privacy door.
Fanchon and Jean-Pierre are very nice and accommodating. They are kind and gracious hosts. I feel very blessed to have found this wonderful getaway.
