South Pasadena is a small, picturesque suburb of Los Angeles that has been featured in countless movies, television shows, and commercials. This city is filled with countless "mom and pop" type shops and restaurants as well as a weekly farmers market filled with organic produce and handcrafted items.

You will have access to a washer/dryer, flat screen TV, DVD player, high-speed WiFi, two BBQ's, new refrigerator and garbage disposal. Queen comfortable futon with down comforter and bedding. For those that like to bake or cook there is a full kitchen with anything you will need. There is a full desk area, book shelves with books and DVD's, closet and storage space.

We live in the main front house and we are friendly, enjoying BBQ's in the common area where we have a table for 8 if the guests like. We are usually around and available most days if we are needed and welcome a nice chat with the guests.

The neighborhood is turn of the century and has been used to shoot many TV shows, movies and commercials. Our town has been labeled "Mayberry and Any Where USA or Hollywood's other back lot" by many because of the older homes and feel of the town and the industry constantly filming. Most of the homes are bungalows with their original character and we are right in the center of where there are many restaurants, bars & pub, yoga studio, coffee shops, post office, library, senior center, community center, the South Pasadena Farmer's Market, Mission Station Goldline Metro Stop, grocery stores and much more. During the holidays it is a perfect place for a family to stay while visiting their loved ones.

Conveniently located very near the light rail train which can access Downtown LA, USC, Staples Center, LA Live, Arts District, Chinatown, Old Town Pasadena, Pasadena Business Districts. Walking distance to all amenities. LAX Airport is easy to get to by taking the Goldline to Union Station and catching the "Flyaway" Bus. Burbank airport is 15 minutes away by car or UBER. It is also located close to Huntington Hospital and the Metro is convenient to the Pasadena medical corridor for family's needing a home while visiting the hospital. It is also close to Children's Hospital and City of Hope.

South Pasadena is located 9 miles North of Downtown Los Angeles and just south of Pasadena. San Marino is adjacent to the East.

We park both of our cars on the property. There is no room for tenant's cars but there is ample street parking.

We have a crib/playpen/bassinet on site and are happy to provide if requested ahead of time.

Please note that there is absolutely no filming on the property.

Perfect studio & neighborhood
I loved my stay at Kristin and Richard's place. They are warm, friendly, helpful hosts who make it very easy to settle into the studio and find your way around the neighborhood. I'm definitely bookmarking this spot for another visit.

Perfect lodging and location for a busy stay in South Pasadena
The amenities were above and beyond for light cooking, use of personal electronics, sleep, atmosphere, and setting. The hosts were friendly and informative with timely response to questions. The property afforded privacy with the opportunity to enjoy a common garden patio as desired. We will definitely return the next time we visit the Pasadena area!

Property is nice and cozy, and has a common area shared with other lodgings that the owners have. There were some issues with a lot of mosquitoes due to recent rain but the owners were accommodating and provided repellent to help. Excellent communication and accomodation from the owners made for a great stay.

The location worked perfectly for us. I needed a location close by while work was being done to my home. We were only 8 mins away. It was the perfect size for me and my pup. Check in was quick and easy. The neighborhood was a great place to walk my dog.

Great stay
The overall experience at this vrbo was fantastic. A few friends and I stayed here for four nights, and the amenities provided were more than acceptable. The host was extremely friendly and willing to go above and beyond to make sure that we were comfortable during our stay. I highly recommend this vrbo if you're planning to stay in Los Angeles County.

Perfect Location
We chose this location since it’s close to where our son lives. Not knowing what to expect of the neighborhood, we were thrilled that the neighborhood is very dog friendly. We took our Becca out for a walk a couple of times, and we met so many dog walkers along the way who were so welcoming. The studio was just the right size for the two of us and our furry companion. I highly recommend this place for pet lovers.

Weekend in South Pasadena
This place is a cozy, quiet hideaway. If you like reading, movies or cooking, you will love this place. There’s plenty of books, DVDs, and every kitchen item you could ever need. They literally thought of everything you would need. There’s even a guidebook with helpful info about everything in the unit, parking, and local restaurants. I would definitely stay here again.

Great location
While the neighborhood was great and the property comfortable, check in was a little awkward. I did not receive instructions prior to arrival and it was confusing as to exactly where the unit was located -- back of house has 2 units plus a Hug motor home to walk around. Luckily the owner was home so I could get information Also, cleanliness was an issue. The studio has a wooden beamed ceiling that was THICK with dust. Floors also not clean and dirty dishes had been left on the bookcases. One morning we were awakened by buzz saws at 8 am which was irritating. It was a great neighborhood, and the privacy and safety were appreciated.

Brilliant south pasadena
Terrific location. Easy walk to local shops and restaurants. Groceries (Vons) about a five block leisurely walk. The Studio is in an enclosed courtyard with a marvelous (large, weathered wood) dining table outdoors in the common area. Inside? Cozy. Big TV with Roku, etc. Plenty of hot water. Well-equipped kitchen! Hosts very responsive - just an SMS away - otherwise unobtrusive. Bedding is a futon, as described. Overnight street parking requires a trip to a kiosk - car info is needed to register, so it's not practical to register a rental car before actually renting it. (Nothing the hosts can do about this.) Overall, highly recommended.

Wonderful little home away from home!
We spent nine nights tucked away in this little studio nest with our dog. Very private and quiet, a nice neighborhood to walk the pup. The owners were friendly and helpful with anything we needed. They have great pets and we’re super welcoming to ours. The location can’t be beat, close to the Gold Line, restaurants, grocery stores, and the Farmers Market if you happen to be there when it is held. The kitchen was very well stocked with anything you would need to stay in and cook. Overnight parking was an easy online purchase with the city of South Pasadena. Print out the pass and you’re all set. Would absolutely stay here again.

Great area
Easy commute to Old Pasadena and great area to walk. Guest house was big enough for me and the dogs although there is not much of a yard for them. Parking is more of a production than I like...parking tags and going to the police station to buy parking was a pain. Owners are great. Still have not received my deposit back.

This property is a lovely example of Southern California charm.
My husband and I enjoyed a 3-night stay in this property safely tucked behind the owners’ home, yet with complete privacy. It was clean and comfy and stocked with anything one would need to cook their own meals, despite the proximity to restaurants and coffee shops. I also liked the common area outdoor seating and tables with grill, shaded by trees and large umbrella. Our schedules prevented us from meeting the owners personally, but our electronic communications with them were cordial and pleasant; and I greatly appreciated their kind assistance regarding a small item I left behind. We plan to return the next time we come to visit South Pasadena.
