This property is beautifully designed. We loved the lobby bar that opens up to downtown Pasadena. Staff throughout were super helpful and nice. Market, water refill & great breakfast set up are all really practical. Our room was small but had everything you could need & was spotlessly clean. Comfy bed! Didn’t get a chance to check out the rooftop but we were staying on the 6th floor and it always looked buzzing - will def go back. Will only be staying at this hotel when visiting Pasadena from now on.
