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.

Next to the coffee pot in the room was a jar with what I assumed would be filters and coffee. Instead it was filled with some liquid and a moldy item. And there was no iron in the room

a bit of country in the city

This hotel was adorable. I loved the neighborhood. It was my first stay in that part of Pasadena and I loved the opportunity to explore. We only stayed one night, but other than the driveway (That added to the charm a little) that was a little scary for someone not used to a one way road. It was amazing. Beautiful native trees surrounded the property and gave it a relaxed out of the way feeling. The hose was a great conversion and I could see it being fun to stay in for a week and enjoy the beautiful lobby. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend it or stay there again.

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!!!

I like that it was set up on a hill and relatively quiet. Where it fell short was in the area of service. What was promised to be a daily wine and cheese happy hour turned out to be bagged snacks and having to request more wine to be brought out. If not, it was simply what was left in the bottles from the day before.

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.

It’s a nice inn, but some things to note…No daily house keeping and the shower soap dispensers weren’t working in my unit. Discovered that out while already in the shower though later I found shampoo /conditioner toiletries in the hallway cabinet. It’s great that it’s feels private, but you are mostly on your own as there’s hardly any customer service. Also the piano shown in the pictures is there for decor only, as it was so dirty and in such poor condition it’s hardly playable, which was unfortunate.

Stayed 2 nights to go see Oasis. Easy check in and out and out and close to the rose bowl. It’s on a hill top so you have to drive up a kind of steep one lane drive way and the parking lot is limited. I like the location of the facility and wish we had more time to enjoy it. Cons are it’s outdated, loud air conditioning and the toilet stopped flushing on our second night there, luckily my bf was able to fix the toilet. Staff was no where to be seen but when I called they responded right away which was nice.

I was disappointed when I was told breakfast was included and when I ordered two eggs one day out of 7 , I was charged $19 for two eggs and told I had a room that breakfast was not included even though I was told it was included originally. A B&B means Bed AND Breakfast, The Stay was over $1300 for 7 nights that should include a breakfast. Other than that I enjoyed staying there and socializing with other guests and enjoyed the patio.
