This 2nd-floor loft exceeds all expectations for a stay in Old Pasadena - it overlooks Colorado Blvd through a VERY large north-facing window - which means no solar gain or harsh sunlight inside (!) - ideal to view the Tournament of Roses Parade, above all the crowds.
The loft itself is superbly spacious, and very well daylit inside when the curtains are opened. It is very clean and up to date inside, laid out well to maximize the space. The couch is very comfortable and the TV is large and easy to use.
The hosting is even better than the loft itself! Karen is very easy to communicate with, and quick to respond and offer help, above and beyond what is customary.
The check-in instructions are detailed, yet keenly organized and therefore very helpful.
I'd seek out this place first anytime I'm back in Pasadena!
