Perfect location in Pasadena

We were staying in Pasadena for the weekend to attend the Oasis gig at the Rose Bowl. Hotel is very modern and clean and in an excellent location to explore Old Padadena and to get to the Rose bowl shuttle. Nice pool and bar area. Staff were helpful and friendly. Would stay here again for sure.

The staff at the front desk was super helpful during check in. I was in a room with an adjoined door and at one point my neighbor did try opening the door and rattled the doorknob, but that's really not the hotels fault - the other guest probably just didn't know what the door led to. So just be aware that some of the first floor two level suites are adjouined. The outdoor patio was super cute and a nice place to go sit and have coffee in the morning! The pool is RIGHT above the recessed patio so it's a little awkward having the curtains open during the day, but for the price and the unique kitschy look & feel, I have no complaints.

I booked a room with two queen beds and a patio. You can only go unto the patio during the day because there are no lights at night! There are only 10 microwaves and they were all occupied. When I expressed my dissatisfaction the front desk staff ANTHONY was rude and dismissive. It was very overpriced for the amount of space in the room. The pool area is dirty and needs to be cleaned.

Very friendly service. The room was more dated than expected, the AC did not cool the room off until several hours later. I paid extra for a loft room with patio. The patio was sad with two basic chairs and nothing more.

What was enjoyable was its location; walkable/short driving distance to downtown Pasadena/Colorado Blvd. The place was very trendy with the decorarions; focusing a lot on jazz and music. Like all Marriots, parking is a hidden fee they charge daily ($24 i might be a dollar or 2 off). This is ridiculous in my opinion. Checking in the evening were two gentleman who were kind and inviting, although they did not inform on having to use the key card in order to work the elevator, which was confusing and frustrating to figure on my own. The morning ladies at the front desk, however were a different story; quite short tempered and did not seem to want to be of assistance; as though asking for help was ruining their day. This....seemed to be a theme with the rest of downtown Pasadena. My room was a bit small. If the bathroom door was open the front door would collide with it. The bed was very noisey when moving around the bed. Other than this the room was comfortable. Had a small fridge, coffee maker with coffee, air conditioning that worked very well, and presentable bathroom. The cleaning staff was not very articulate in getting to rooms in our 3 day stay, which was a bit frustrating.
