Apartments in South Pasadena

My fiancé and I did a hotel buyout of the Arroyo for our wedding this month, and it was absolutely worth it! Our friends and family stayed in all the rooms, which were lovely, spacious, and comfortable. The Arroyo also catered our goodbye brunch the Sunday after the wedding, and it was FANTASTIC. They provided a decadent buffet of French toast, sausage, eggs, quiche, bacon, kept the coffee fresh, and included a few bottles of bubbly and orange juice to make mimosas. We were a bit slow getting all of our wedding guests out, but the owners were extremely relaxed about letting us take our time to spend our final moments with all our friends and family. Given the size of our wedding, we also did a hotel buyout of another boutique inn down the street, Bi**** Ho****. If you're deciding between these two, choose the Arroyo, hands down. Communication with the Arroyo staff was excellent, unlike the owners at B***** H****, who we contacted many times via emails, texts, and phone calls, only to receive responses sporadically. Due to this lack of communication, there was a severe misunderstanding between us that resulted in a really awful exchange on our last day. It was the only negative experience of our entire wedding weekend. If you want to spend a lot of money and be treated poorly by a pretentious couple who seem to think they are overseeing a museum rather than a hotel, stay at Bi***** Ho****. However, if you want to have a pleasant hospitality experience without the drama, complete with excellent food and beautiful views, the Arroyo is your place! Thank you, Susan and Janice, for your kindness and for being the perfect place to conclude our wedding weekend festivities!
