We loved every minute of our stay at AVI, beautiful home and great accomodations; don't even get me started with the breaksfast (Saturday morning) so fresh and delicious that yes I ate every little bit of it; excellent coffee and muffins too along with fresh fruit served right before the main dish. We are already talking about a return visit... More

This is our omteen stay at AVI. This time we also brought our 70# puppy and stayed at one of the pet friendly rooms. I was amazed how fresh the room felt and how clean the carpet was. We brought the puppy's bed so he was happy staying in the room while we had the delicious breakfast made by different... More

My wife & I wanted to spend our Anniversary in Pasadena but were surprised that there were no B&Bs in Pasadena proper. The Arroyo Vista in South Pas was an excellent choice. The Inn is a beautiful old home with great updated rooms & wonderful views of Pasadena. The owners were friendly & helpfull and the breakfasts were super. You... More

Lovely spot set high up off a main road. Comfortable room and very spacious public areas and porches. The breakfasts in the large breakfast room were very delicious. Convenient for visits to So Pas or Pasadena. More

I have just returned from a 3 night stay at this wonderful gem of a bed & breakfast. The inn has been beautifully restored with first class touches and features. The rooms are comfortable and spacious with spectacular views. The inn was charming and the owner Pat was hands on, accommodating & personable. I had an extra guest for two... More

Upon arrival my girlfriends and I were pretty impressed with the place. The place was really cute and the view in the morning when you wake up is spectacular. Right away we discussed coming back and using this place as our little getaway from the outside world. It's too bad that we didn't leave this B&B feeling the same way....... More

First, the person who wrote this review was never a registered guest at Arroyo Vista Inn. I had no knowledge that she was even coming to the Inn. Second, the person who did register for the room told me very specifically the night before that she could not stay overnight because she could not find a babysitter for her child.... More

I have been staying at the Arroyo Vista frequently for several years when I was on business in the LA area. It is a lovely place. After a long day of travel and business it is soothing to arrive at the Arroyo Vista. In addition, I recently brought a group of colleagues to the Arroyo Vista when we had meetings... More

Enjoyable B&B with first rate accommodations and great breakfast. Large rooms with great views; large bathroom; good towels and bedding. Easy access to S. Pasadena and Pasadena. Walkable neighborhoods. Nice indoor and outdoor sitting areas. Breakfast, afternoon wine & cheese, newspapers and comfy chairs make being there a treat. Would easily recommend to friends and family.

What a surprise to get off the highway and find the inn so close yet so secluded from the roadways. A winding drive from street level leads a very atractive compound tucked into the side of the hillside. The broad porch with comfortable seating, with the sound of water from the fountain and vista through the trees out to the... More

I have reviewed many hotels. I booked it early. It looked amazing. I knew I was choosing the least expensive room, but was so disappointed when I heard that a huge discount was given to my fellow travelers. I inquired about an upgrade, but the owner was very distracted and rude. Beware: the rooms on the third floor do NOT... More

This guest indeed chose and booked one of the least expensive rooms which have fewer amenities. When she saw the more expensive rooms that her companions had booked, she said in front of them and me, ”Why couldn’t I get a room like that?” I told her she could have any room available and receive the same discount that her...
