“Amazing house!”
Cammie Kristy12/22/2009
We stayed at this house for 2 nights (tired of hotels) - we were in Pasadena on business. The house is amazing. Owners are great and very accomodating. Very clean, quiet, and not far from Old Town Pasadena where they have great shopping and dining.

“Bissell House Bliss”
Frank Carpenter10/4/2009
My wife and I spent a lovely, relaxing and restful few days here on a recent trip to visit family and friends. The Bissell House felt like a home away from home. It was clean and comfortable with friendly staff and a a delicious breakfast. We enjoyed borrowing their free DVD's to watch movies in our room, the fact that we could come and go at will, (no weird rules) and were left to our own devices. Private and tranquil. Just what the doctor ordered.
