Hilda's place is a gem, a cottage outfitted with incredible care. The garden and outside areas are, likewise, easy and beautifully designed. Plenty of space for my wife and college-age son to hang together or separately. And Hilda herself was a kind and friendly host.

Home Away from Home

From the minute we stepped into the Cottage we felt like we walked into a Home. This place was the best and the Property Manager even better. Best equipped short term stay place I’ve been to. My friend and I enjoyed our stay while taking in the Events near and around Pasadena. Can’t wait to rebook on our next adventure to the area! Thank you, Hilda!

Comfortable home, lovely backyard

We enjoyed our visit especially being able to sit in the backyard (plus there was a private outdoor seating area). Everything was provided. Slightly cold indoors - but it was colder than normal for the time of year.

Amazing property! Nicely appointed & well maintained. Had no idea such a serene back yard could be found in suburban LA. It was great sitting outdoors in December getting a tan (temps in high 60s) and feeling like we were @a retreat in Napa. The electric fireplace indoors was a nice touch once the sun set & it got a bit chilly. Despite Hilda the hostess (very sweet lady) occupying the front home, we saw/heard zero of her coming/goings. Can’t wait to return for our next So.Cal LA trip.

Superb!!

The property is an absolutely gorgeous, spacious, comfortable, cozy lone standing home. Has two ample rooms and a sofa bed in the living room. Fully equipped kitchen, large TV with all channels. There's a very large private patio with beautiful landscaping,chairs and tables to hang out. Good WIFI. You access by opening a sliding gate with a remote control you'll be provided, and parking is inside the property. The neighborhood is very nice with restaurants, supermarkets and anything you may need nearby. The Rose Bowl is 1mile away and downtown LA 25mins.Hilda is very attentive and responds to any questions promptly. This was a very special place!!!
