My wife and I have now stayed at Vagabond Pasadena 5 times in 2008, and have been impressed with the service and attention to detail from the staff: good continental breakfast with juice, fresh fruit, pastries and waffles, fresh cut flowers on the tables from the front roses, nice clean pool area with bar-b-que grill and a lot more.

I found this hotel through Expedia, but have stayed many many times since and booked directly. Dave (GM) and the other staff have constantly gone out of their way to accomodate my sometimes unorthodox travel needs. I commute extremely frequently between the NYC and LA metropolitan areas due to business and chose Pasadena because I personally like the area. This... more

I booked a stay at this hotel, and after double checking the location sent off a cancellation request. I sent it 4 days before my arrival. Having not gotten a response to the email I sent another request to cancel and asked for a confirmation (3 days prior to arrival hotel policy on the website says you can cancel without... more

Despite dealing personally with the Vagabond and booking a non-smoking room with a king bed - - two weeks early, we arrived to find our reservation was for a smoking room with a queen bed.

Huge lack of training on part of management. Took 90 min to wake up the night clerk one morning to get new room key.... more

Reasonable rate. Walking distance from Gold Line, Bus Lines and Boston Court theatre and Pasadena Playhouse. Near movies and Supermarket. I need inexpensive safe lodging. This more than meets my needs. Call the 800 line and receive senior rate. Radio really works, tv fine and room clean. Pretty shabby blanket. I love to eat at Pita, Pita close by and... more

I had stay at that dump for 2 nights. At the beginning clerk couldn’t find my reservation that I made few weeks in advance through Orbitz. The room I got seemed to be built as a addition right above clerks office. The room arrangement was very unusual. The toilet sit was of a size for 5/6 years old. While sitting... more

Just OK. $65/night. The room was fine, but there was actually a condom wrapper on the bed, and a plugged bathroom sink. Hall carpeting was filthy and brought the appeal way down. more
