“Service and property were EXCELLENT”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 12 January 2012
6
people found this review helpful

In looking for a place to stay for the Rose Parade, this property was close and actually met all our needs for the week we stayed here. The room was spacious, clean, and cheerful. It looked like it had been been redecorated recently. We had a wet bar and separate bathroom sink area with granite countertops. There was a refrigerator, coffee maker, new 42" flat screen TV, free wireless internet connection, and a very comfortable bed. Only thing lacking was a room safe. Continental Breakfast was served in the lobby area. It was a good mix of danish, fruit, cereals, fresh waffles, juice, coffee and more. The front desk staff who we met were George and Denise. They were both extremely helpful and friendly. They knew the area and how to find places like Trader Joes and the schedules for the Gold line. We needed extra towels and they were supplied immediately. I read mixed reveiws online for this Quality Inn before booking and did not experience any of the negatives others had pointed out. This property was clean and met our needs for our weeks stay. I would recommend this hotel to family and friends.

ParadeGoers, Thank you for your wonderful review of our property. Denise and Jorge were very pleased to read your review. It is very pleasing to know that we surpassed your expectations. As we do not provide safes in the rooms we will have safes located in our new lobby. Our door locks to every room also have key logs for your security. We are remodeling the lobby and breakfast area now and have just finished the spa area! Many great changes await for your next visit. The renovations will be complete by the end of March. We do look forward to seeing you again when you are in Pasadena and meeting your friends and family.

Absolutely the poorest excuse for a Continental breakfast ever. Bring your own drinking water! Very poor value.

Jenmolenda, We at the Quality Inn Pasadena strive to make every aspect of your stay enjoyable and meet all your needs. The breakfast you experienced, we are sorry to hear was unenjoyable. We would greatly appreciate any and all feedback from you to better the breakfast selection for all future guests. We are under a Lobby/Lounge/Breakfast room rennovation and all suggestions are always welcome. We do follow Choice Hotel Guidelines for breakfast, but are always willing to work in other breakfast options for a better balance. Thank you for taking the time to bring this to our attention. Hopefully if you visit Pasadena again we will surpass your expectations.

“So much better than we expected!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 28 November 2011

people found this review helpful

We were looking for somethng near the Cal Tech and decided to give this hotel a try. WOW it was far better than expected, the manager went out of his way to make us welcome, check-in was a snap and the "continental" breakfast included everything you could think of - and a hostess to help you cook the waffles.

I usually have trouble sleeping away from home but the bed was so comfortable I had no problem at all! Everything was great, new large T.V's,, extremely clean and comfortable.

Would not think twice about staying here again and I give it 10 stars!

Room Tip: We were on the 3rd. floor and never heard another person during the week-end

“What a nice surpise!”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 17 October 2011

people found this review helpful

My friend and I were looking for an inexpensive room close to the convention center. Quality Inn was very affordable. Check in was super quick. The room was comfortable and clean. LOVED the continental breakfast-plenty of food choices. I sleep deeply, but my friend said the walls were a bit thin. She could hear our neighbors next door talking until the wee hours of the morning. We checked out the indoor jacuzzi and sauna, both were clean, but very old and needs updating. It was still nice to have a soak and sauna. It was no problem to get more towels at 11pm. The staff was very accommodating and pleasant. I would definitely stay here again and highly recommend it.

Room Tip: I sleep deeply, but my friend said the walls were a bit thin. She could hear our neighbors next door...

“Ended our search for adjoining rooms...”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 13 October 2011
4
people found this review helpful

We were in Pasadena visiting some family who were in town for a wedding and needed to find a reasonably priced hotel that offered adjoining rooms (with the door that goes in between the 2 rooms). When I called this hotel, the front desk person was very helpful and I felt like the price was VERY reasonable.
When we arrived, I was pleased to find a nice, clean room. There was a small wet bar area and a refrigerator, which was helpful to have to keep our son's snacks and drinks. The bed was very comfortable to sleep on. We took advantage of the continental breakfast both mornings. They offered a lot of variety -- make your own waffle, cereal, fruit, yogurt, etc. The desk staff was very friendly and helpful. They even printed out our family's boarding passes for their returning flight. Also, the hotel was very close to shopping (Target is one block away and a mall just a few exits down the highway) and dining (lots of choices in the area).
The only thing that I didn't like about the hotel was the fact that each room has a door that goes to the outside. I prefer to have a indoor hallway, but for the price, this hotel was just perfect for our stay.
