We had a lovely stay in this adorable cottage. Our Host, Marla was very responsive and attentive throughout our stay. We couldn't have asked for a better Host...THE BEST! The home was adorable, even decorated with Christmas adornments and lights. The location was amazing in a very quiet neighborhood and within a 20 minute car ride to everything Pasadena has to offer. Thank you Marla, we really appreciated your insights to the Pasadena area!

My husband and I had a wonderful 3-day stay at this beautiful Pasadena English Cottage. We were as comfortable as we would have been in our own home. Upon arrival we unpacked some food that we had brought up with us and we were surprised that the refrigerator had some snack food, bagels and water ready for us to eat and drink. The little dining area, complete with a coffee bar, was just perfect for our morning coffee. The kitchen is well stocked with dishes, serving dishes, silverware, cookware and anything else you might need for your stay. The outdoor back yard was so beautiful that we ate a couple of meals on the patio table underneath a gorgeous avocado tree. We had never rented a VRBO property before and we would certainly seek this cottage out again the next time we visit the Pasadena area. But most important, the owner of the cottage was a delight to work with and was very informative of anything that we might need during our stay. A must visit when staying in Pasadena!

What can we say that has not already been said?! This home is beyond beautiful and located in a gorgeous neighborhood! As for the lovely Miss Marla, such a wonderful and caring lady! We loved everything about our stay and could not have asked for a better host! My mother, sister and I will always cherish the time we spent here together! It was great waking up, having our coffee, going for walks before heading out then knowing we'd be coming back to such a beautiful, tranquil and safe place to rest. Thank you for having us!

Everything about our stay was wonderful. Marla is a terrific host, and all the extras she provided were superb and greatly appreciated!

First of all, thank you, Marla (host), for sharing your charming and fabulous home. This is our second time in staying in this Charming Pasadena English Cottage, and we just really love it here and LOVE this home! Everything that was described about this property was the BEST description of this home and amenities. Marla was very easy to communicate with and she was prompt with her responses. She made sure to communicate all important information regarding the house. Marla, you are FABULOUS! We will be returning to this fabulous home for the third time in the near future. Once again, thank you!

The Charming Pasadena English Cottage was just that. Big enough for our family, warmly decorated, and comfortable. Marla, our host, was easy to communicate with and made every aspect of the stay simple. We were back and forth to events in Eagle Rock and Pasadena and the parking and easy access to the freeway were a plus. A wonderful experience in every way.

The cottage was 100% prime Pasadena! It was perfect for our family of five. Marla gets the the details right, down to a bowl of Halloween candy for our kids. The kitchen was stocked with nice, fresh provisions. The house was immaculate and comfortable. The back yard patio was truly gorgeous. I could not have been more pleased with our stay.

Charming English Cottage is the best description for this home. Everything was wonderful and welcoming, from the fresh flowers in the home, to the breakfast foods left for us, to the comfy beds and sitting areas. The neighborhood is quiet and beautiful and close to old Town Pasadena. Hard to pick a favorite part, but coffee on the back patio amongst roses and fruit trees could not be beat.

We were visiting LA and nearby area and had a great stay at this place. The house is charming and spacious enough for a family of five to spread out. Also this house is fully stocked (even all the emergency stuff like flashlight). Marla was a caring host and she was prompt with responses at all times. Highly recommend!

The house is perfect for family ... so well-appointed with everything you need to cook and stay. Thanks for the goodies to get us through the first couple of days. Keurig and drip, electric kettle, all the pots and pans. Great, safe neighborhood and lots of walking available. Close to groceries and restaurants.

Super quick stay to visit with friends and family since the pandemic. The house location was central to everyone and all the great nearby restaurants made it a perfect stay. Everyone enjoyed it, and found the house so cute and clean. Super friendly neighbors too!

Neat place, all the amenities and all working, for a very comfortable stay. Very safe for my stay with a young family (even has a cute backyard) and older parents and victory park a short stroll away.

I have stayed at a lot of VRBO properties and they are usually very nice, but this one was extraordinary. The house was well appointed...we had everything we needed. And the owner left us a few treats to start the day! The house is adorable and the garden is exquisite. I took pictures of the flowers they were so beautiful. The Owner was also very responsive. A wonderful way to spend Mother's Day weekend.

What an amazing rental experience! This home is even more beautiful than the photos, is in a lovely neighborhood with well kept homes, has a great view towards the mountains, and there are parrots in the street trees! The furniture is all super comfy and there is a lovely patio and garden out back. Our dog loved it too! The host is by far the best we have experienced. Breakfast items, fruit, and an amazingly good avocado were left in the fridge for us. As we were there for Easter, there was cute Easter decor and baskets of candy - yum! The kitchen has everything and there is a full pantry with anything else you might need. Tons of soaps and cleaning supplies and a fresh kitchen sponge too. The bathrooms are stocked with soaps and shampoos and other grooming essentials and all done in a super stylish way. What a way to vacay in my old home town - thank you!

We enjoyed our stay at this warm, inviting home. Our flight to LAX was delayed. Marla was easy-to-reach and helpful. She left the lights on for us. The home is located in a safe, historic neighborhood on a tree-lined street. It is a classic California cottage-style home with modern amenities. When we arrived, a sitting porch welcomed us. It opened to a stylishly decorated living room with a fireplace and a view of the San Gabriel mountains. A spacious dining room connects the living room and kitchen. Vases of fresh flowers were a nice touch. The kitchen is well-equipped. I appreciated this since I like to cook. Breakfast items were in the refrigerator. There was a kitchen nook with a coffee bar, a pleasant spot for dining. Sleeping was quiet and comfortable. There was ample closet space. It can sometimes be difficult to figure out an unfamiliar TV, but not here; there were instructions for each remote and we had no problems. I noticed that the TV room closet was filled with games and puzzles. The TV room has French doors that open to the backyard. The backyard is like a private oasis complete with lemon, avocado, and orange trees. The back patio has comfortable seating, a perfect spot to relax with a cocktail. This charming home exceeded our expectations. It was beautifully decorated and thoughtfully stocked. Marla is a gracious host. The location is fabulous! It is a great home base for exploring Pasadena. For us, it was a wonderful place to visit with family. If you are looking for a special place to stay, we HIGHLY RECOMMEND this home.

Great place to stay

The house itself is utterly charming, beautifully furnished and decorated, with a working fireplace—it seemed like a labor of love, not an empty box minimally furnished with Ikea products. It was immaculate, and thoughtfully stocked with everything we needed, from bagels and yoghurt for breakfast to coffee, and snacks, to laundry detergent, shampoo and body wash. You can even pick oranges from the tree in the backyard and make your own juice. The owner was helpful and easy to reach. Highly recommended!

The pictures were perfectly accurate but do not reflect the super coziness, and the attention to comfort, decor and charm of this lovely 2 bath / 2 bedroom cottage. We utilized the sleeper sofa as well and it was of a very high quallity. The kitchen had literally everything a good cook would require. Breakfast nook made nice little office space. Everything we needed was there. Our hostess was marvelous. It was a quiet neighborhood of well kept houses of similar style. Just a perfect stay overall.

This was the perfect location for our Pasadena visit ... the house and property are so charming!! Everything was clean and the kitchen was very well stocked. All the special touches did not go unnoticed, from fresh flowers to breakfast goodies. Thank you Marla!!

Marla‘s home was absolutely gorgeous. The furniture and decor was beautiful and in line with the time period of the home. The kitchen was fully stocked with everything that we needed. The home is located in a beautiful part of Pasadena on a gorgeous street. We couldn’t have asked for a more comfortable and clean home to stay in. I would highly recommend Marla‘s home to anyone looking to stay in the area and will definitely plan on booking this home for future visits. Thank you so much Marla, for your hospitality.

Quiet neighborhood close to parks and Metro. Kitchen was well equipped with amenities. I enjoyed picking oranges from tree in backyard and making fresh juice. Owner Marla was very responsive to my questions.

Owner met us at cottage and apologized for cleaning not quite done. Older home with much charm. Kitchen very adequate except for extremely dull knives. Comfortable beds and bathrooms very adequate. Excellent location. Only two miles to downtown or CalTech. Would stay again. Surprised at the poor locks; must have little crime in Pasedena.

We spent a week in Marla's house along with our dog Ivy. We enjoyed the neighborhood with the beautiful homes and quiet streets. Walking Ivy was a real pleasure for all of us and the yard was a favorite for all. We enjoyed our meals at the table in the kitchen because of the light and neighborhood view and Marla left plenty of breakfast items for us. The pictures are accurate. Marla upgraded the gate at the end of the driveway at some point and it's very secure for anyone concerned about keeping their pet contained. Highly recommended. We would stay again.

This sweet cottage was perfect for our family visit to the beautiful Huntington Gardens, Getty Museum, and other LA area attractions. We 3 sisters and 1 husband fit perfectly and enjoyed well-equipped kitchen, DR, and LR. Outdoor lawns, landscaping, and colorful flowers completed our peaceful sojourn.

This house is made for comfort, the kitchen is stocked! Breakfast items, juices, coffees...she goes beyond for her renters. Very quick with the responses if any questions pop up, just an amazing job over all!

We thoroughly enjoyed our visit. The house was perfect for us. We were visiting the area looking at schools and houses and getting to know Pasadena. The house was older, but nicely furnished and located in a nice, quiet neighborhood. Marla was very helpful and responsive. We had everything we needed.

Marla’s property was just as described. Very charming. Perfect location for visiting Pasadena. Have never been to an Airbnb that was so well stocked with everything you could want and more!

Would definately stay again. Felt like home.

This charming home is beautifully decorated. Many fine touches. The owner generously filled the refrigerator with orange juice, eggs, cinnamon bread, yogurt, eggs, milk. Each drawer had helpful items: baggies, silver foil, szissors. The homes on the block are lovely and well cared for. We would highly recommend this home.

This property was perfect! Charming quiet and located perfectly to our needs. Our host Marla was wonderful, answering all my quirky questions and just being super attentive. This was truly a perfect trip for us and I will definitely stay here again!
