About the host
Hosted by Julie Richter
I'm a regular traveler and have learned some of the important comforts needed when traveling so have designed my home with that in mind. This is not my full time home but has been for my private use until now and I am opening up my doors to you to share such a lovely peaceful experience. I hope you enjoy your stay as much as I do when I stay there.
Why they chose this property
Fresh, clean, and well maintained with attention to detail. Feel the comforts of a real home while knowing you will be well looked after. Many of the renters have been back again to stay they have loved it so much. If you are looking for a comfortable space to call home while in Pasadena, look no further.
What makes this property unique
Prime location-peaceful quiet street but within a few minutes walk to shops and restaurants. So convenient and easy to access. And as the previous tenants have said "a very charming home" & "it's just perfect".
