Staying in an 80-year-old home does come with some “quirks” (we call it character!). Such character includes limited electrical outlets (however, we provide plenty of power strips with USB ports for your charging needs), sensitive plumbing (please treat it gently!), and rustic, original wood floors that aren't perfect and creak at times (it’s just the house welcoming you!).

This is the second time we have booked to stay at this house because it is absolutely perfect for our family. The attention to detail that Angela and Curtis pay to this house is extraordinary. They have thought of everything! It's such a delight to stay in such a beautiful and well appointed short-term rental home. We will definitely be back for a third visit!

We once again greatly enjoyed our stay at this charming casita in a quiet Pasadena neighborhood of older, smaller homes. The owners lived next door but were never obtrusive (but readily available through the VRBO app) and the back patio was shielded by trees, so there is a sense of privacy. We enjoyed sitting out on the patio during the hot evenings, which was well-lit and comfortable. Green parrots flew over at dusk and dawn, but mostly we spotted dog walkers passing by. The house is only a 10-15 minutes drive away from Pasadena landmarks, such as downtown, the Convention Center, and the Norton-Simon Museum. The cottage is very stylish and unique, both in style and decor. The house was very comfortable and extremely clean but could have used some niceties like luggage racks, softer facial and toilet tissues, and higher showerheads in the bathrooms. The air/heat, WiFi, and smart TV worked fine. We really appreciated the labeled light switches and drawers, night lights, and the great lighting throughout the home. We didn't find any maintenance issues, which is extremely rare for regular VRBO travelers like us - so kudos to the owners. The laundry center was very appreciated, as we didn't have to pack as much on our trip. Overall, we had a fun and relaxing time and recommend Casa de los Gatos in Pasadena to all.

Unless you stay here. This is the best rental we have ever stayed in. We have rented in Europe, across the US from the East Coast to Pasadena. The owners of this home have done an EXCELLENT job making a home away from home where people can be comfortable. We are chemical sensitive and we had no issues- they cleaned with scent free and we could use all the soaps they provided. There was not one thing we looked for that they hadn't provided. The thought and work that have gone into this house to make it a comfortable place to stay are exemplary. We needed an extra vase (beyond the one provided) and popped next door to the owners and they were happy to lend us one of theirs. They provided everything and we felt private and comfortable. I'm afraid to tell others about this home because it won't be available next time we want to come to Pasadena! Thank you so much for your love and care. Molly and Kim

If I could give this house 6, 7, or 10 stars, I would. It is beautiful, spotless, extremely well stocked and wonderfully equipped. The pictures are very accurate and the neighborhood is peaceful and lovely and only blocks from a main street where you can find plenty of food and supplies. This gem feels very much like a home away from home, cozy and comfortable, and Angela and Curtis are great hosts. I exercise on the floor every morning and I can tell you there is not one dust bunny in this house. It is probably the most spotless VRBO we have ever rented. All the instructions were very clear, checkin and out were easy. Having laundry facilities makes a huge difference. We got there late on the first night and they left a light on, the heat on and cookies to welcome us. There is a marvelous hot beverage station in the kitchen with everything you could need to make anything you want. The appliances are fairly new and beautifully clean.The kitchen has everything you could possibly need.There are lots of windows for wonderful California sunshine, plenty of room to spread out and there is a terrific patio where we could eat outside and relax. The hosts have really thought of everything. If you are looking for a really comfortable, delightful and low key get away, we highly recommend this home. We will definitely look forward to a return visit. Many thanks Angela and Curtis for a total 5 star experience!
