Beautiful and peaceful oasis ... until it wasn't

I really loved this room! Very spacious and cozy, with a small balcony. My favorite part, though, was the deep soaking tub in the bathroom. Amazing. However, the guests staying above me arrived late and were clomping around in hard-soled shoes until midnight. The Inn made a big deal of "be considerate of other guests and keep noise down after 9 pm," but apparently, these people did not get the memo! Also, I woke to the smell of marijuana (6:30 am!) coming from somewhere in the hotel, even though signs were posted saying No Smoking indoors ($300 fine). Perhaps because no one is on-site after 6 pm, it's difficult to enforce the rules. Which is too bad, because otherwise, I really loved this place. If I ever do stay here again, I will be sure to book a room on the top floor!!!

What a wonderful stay at Arroyo Vista Inn. Five stars all around! I wish we could extend our stay. We felt so taken care of and cozy staying at the Inn. We also loved lingering in the morning and enjoying a lovely Sunday brunch.

Quaint and Delightful

This place was a found gem. It's family-run and has everything I needed. Located in South Pasadena and close to the 110 Freeway, it's easy to access Downtown LA, Pasadena, or to pick up the 10 Freeway and head toward the beach/SantaMonica.

Nice house odd feeling

The room was really nice and comfortable. I didn’t get an email with the door code and arrived late. It was hard to get the code to get in. At breakfast I was at the table 20-30 minutes before someone asked if I wanted breakfast. There was no one to ask or a menu or a bell. Just nothing. Also, there are items out in dishes that look available to guests. Be careful there is a cost to all the items. It just felt like everything you did there was an extra charge for everything.

Good, but "room" for improvement

Overall, we enjoyed our stay. A couple of items, though. 1) our room wasn't made up when we arrived at check-in time. We picked up our key and went to the room, but it had not been cleaned since the last guest. 2) the Television was disconnected and didn't work. If they don't want it used, they should remove it. Texted for clean towels, but they had not arrived by 5:00 PM. The breakfast was very good and was served promptly.
