New Private house in historic area- Pasadena
Guest rating: 5.0 / 5
Overview
This is a newly built private house set in a quiet, historic, and safe Pasadena-area neighborhood. Guests rent the entire private house rather than a room within a shared home, with a separate entrance and free driveway parking. The property sits in front of a pool area, though the pool itself is reserved for the owner's use.
Rooms & Layout
The house includes one bedroom and one bathroom, the bedroom equipped with air conditioning, heating, and a ceiling fan for year-round comfort. A separate kitchen and TV/living room are available, cooled and heated with a portable air conditioning and heating unit. The home is smoke-free inside, with smoking permitted only outdoors and marijuana use prohibited anywhere on the premises.
Amenities
The house comes with a full kitchen and microwave for self-catering, free Wi-Fi, and in-unit air conditioning and heating. Guests also have free use of an on-site laundry room with a washer. Shared outdoor amenities include a lounge, tent, table area, and a basketball court, though the pool and spa are off-limits to guests.
Location
The house is minutes from Old Town Pasadena, the Rose Bowl, Pasadena City College, and Caltech, with nearby restaurants, shops, and Metro access. Its central location also puts Universal Studios, Disneyland, LA Live, and Hollywood within reach for day-trip sightseeing across the greater Los Angeles area.
Best for
This house suits travelers who want a quiet, private, self-catered base with the independence of an entire home rather than a hotel room -- families, small groups, or caregivers needing rest and space. Its central position near Old Town Pasadena, the Rose Bowl, Caltech, PCC, and Metro access also makes it convenient for visitors splitting time between Pasadena and wider LA attractions like Hollywood, Universal Studios, and Disneyland.
Travel tips
Bring a car if possible, since free driveway parking is provided and the location is described as central to spread-out LA attractions like Universal Studios, Disneyland, and Hollywood, which are best reached by driving. Nearby Metro access offers an alternative for trips into town without driving. Note that the pool and spa on the property are for the owner's use only, so don't plan your stay around swimming access, and be aware of house rules against smoking indoors, marijuana use, and loud parties.
What guests say
The limited review feedback available highlights attentive, helpful hosting, with one guest specifically noting the host's support during a stressful family caregiving situation involving an elderly parent with dementia. The comments point to a host who is responsive and accommodating to guests' personal circumstances. No negative themes appear in the available excerpts, though the small number of reviews (two) means broader patterns cannot be confirmed.
