Best Western Pasadena Inn

The hotel is not really bad at all I just think they need a later check out better breakfast even due to colvin and the furniture update biggest problem here is the parking I had to park outside the hotel less

Check in was fine…albeit a bit weird due to it being behind a night window. The room smelled nice; the bed, TV, and fridge were all good. The property was within walking distance of an iconic burger place (The Original Tops). The air conditioner provided adequate cooling and white noise. The decor was lacking, but that was to be expected in a budget motel. Because they are still in COVID protocol they only offered a grab and go breakfast, which was okay (banana and bottled water were useful). My issue was the shower…no matter how much I fiddled with it the temperature never got above tepid, so I had to take a “refreshing” shower; Unacceptable. Also, the sink had no stopper so I felt guilty for using so much water during this severe drought. Thus a four became a three just like that. less

Upon arrival for our stay, my wife and I were a little apprehensive because we saw several "permanent residents" walking around with no shoes on. I was also a little put off by having to check-in and conduct all business through the "night check-in" window. 1st impressions made me think it wasn't a very safe hotel. But, the staff were able to recommend a good sushi restaurant which was close by. there is also a Sprouts market & 7-11 within walking distance too! There were some tasty looking Mexican food restaurants nearby too and a taco truck down the street on the corner. Overall, I felt safe and the parking lot was full of cars the next morning. I did not experience any excessive loud guests or residents, but we easily could have. The grab and go breakfast was adequate and the in-room coffee maker was nice, but the coffee lacked flavor. The Pasadena Inn gets a vote of Very Good and a recommendation from this BW Rewards member. less

We always stay at Best Westerns, I'm a rewards member. The fact that we basically had to service our oun room was not acceptable, down to collecting our own linens each morning along with servicing the coffee bar and emptying our own trash less

These days, it seems like it is getting harder and harder to find a decent hotel room for under $100. So I was pleasantly surprised that for $89, I got a nice, comfortable, and exceptionally clean room at this Best Western. The property is well maintained and felt secure. Good location close to downtown Pasadena. Staff were all professional and friendly. Overall a great value for the money. less
