The Willows
Stayed at The Willows for a month before moving into our new home. Positives are: handy location, quiet street, comfortable bed and air conditioning, reliable internet connection. Some fixtures and appliances are a bit dated and worn, but functional: clothes dryer, dishwasher, bathtub. No real workspace and dining table and chairs are very small, so computer work is a bit awkward. Couch (futon) is very hard (uncomfortable).

I rented the Willows during an 8-week temporary work assignment. It was exactly as described and fit my needs perfectly. I brought my small dog and the neighborhood was very nice to walk around - felt safe even late at night. The off street parking is very convenient to have.(I have a very small car so the tandem parkers next to the assigned spot didn't bother me, but I can see that it would be difficult for some. Not really something the management has any control over though.) Washer/dryer, internet, cable, and kitchen appliances all worked without any problems. The kitchen is stocked like a typical short-term rental (plenty of corkscrews and wine glasses but not enough measuring cups or pans.) It's definitely workable. Don't count on sleeping someone on the pull out sofa, very very uncomfortable. You're better off with a blow up mattress. However, the bed is very comfortable and there are plenty of linens, pillows, etc. The management team always stayed in touch and were very prompt with any communications. I didn't have any problems during my stay, but I'm sure they would have responded to anything very quickly.

We had a wonderful experience with the Willows. The apartment is in a very centralized location, is spotlessly maintained, and is close to everything we wanted to do in Pasadena. The amenities are exactly as advertised. I would definitely recommend this property to any friends or relatives. The managers could not have been nicer and more helpful. They responded to all questions immediately and thoroughly. Our favorite attractions in Pasadena are the Norton Simon Museum and the Huntington library and gardens. I would definitely recommend staying at the Willows if you are ever in Pasadena.

This property worked great for us. It is very clean and well equipped on the inside. The outside shared area could be cleaned up. The management company is great to work with. It was nice to have a parking spot but it was very hard to access because the spot before they tandem park 2 large cars. The location is OK, really not far from everywhere you want to visit in Pasadena but definitely not an area you would want to walk around in.

Right from the get go when we were inquiring about The Willows I received quick and complete responses to my questions. My contact person was very friendly and sent information requested about location. Our arrival began with a lovely welcome basket in the bright cheery kitchen. The Willows was all that we needed. Beautiful, shaded courtyard in a quiet neighbourhood. We needed walking distance to Old Pasadena/Convention Centre and it was a lovely 20 minute walk.We would definitely book at The Willows again for the friendly service, pleasant
location and clean inviting accommodation.

The condo looks like it was remodeled in the past few years, which is nice. The place is compact, but well laid out to not feel cramped. I stayed a week in July, when the weather was 100 degrees each day. The AC unit is in the bedroom with no direct cooling in the living/kitchen area. I wish there was a standing fan available to pull air from the bedroom to the living room because there was a dramatic temperature difference between the two. Although the living room was warmer than I would have preferred, it was still significantly better than the outside heat.
The kitchen is well organized and everything (microwave, oven, coffee pot, fridge) worked well and was easy to operate. The only negative was there was a bit of a sugar ant problem in the kitchen. Fortunately, they seemed confined to the kitchen as I didn't see them anywhere else. I used a bit of the bleach cleaner (provided under the sink) to kill many of them. For the most part, they weren't an issue and I didn't have any problem with them invading my food.
The washer & dryer are outside on the patio. Being from Oregon, this was unimaginable to me. The units are nice and worked very well when I did a load of laundry.
The condo is located in a nice are within walking distance of Winchell's, a local burger place, and a small grocery store. It's also just a five minute drive from Paseo Colorado.
Overall, I would recommend this place and would stay there again in the future.

Our week at the Willows was a pleasure. We liked the space, the location,
and the furnishings. The kitchen had everything you could need;
the bed was comfy and the washing machine and dryer were great to have. Vacation Rentals helped us immediately with any issues or questions (more towels, a missing waste basket), so we felt well
provided for. We would return to The Willows very happily for another
