Home is a fairly good sized house with a nice view of the St. Gabriel Mountains in California.
Ours is a big family of five children, but with the four older ones being married, we just have our precious youngest teenage child, Melissa, staying with us. She is presently a freshman at the Pasadena City College which is just a five-minute drive away.
We live in a three-bedroom house in a quiet neighborhood in Pasadena City. Our home boasts of a big front garden with a bed of African daisies in bloom. The kitchen is always busy while a large swimming pool lies idle, waiting for summer to welcome family members and student guests who may want to take refreshing dips.
Our home also serves as a facility licensed to provide care to preschool-aged children during the day. We have been into this for the past six years. Currently, we have five boys with ages ranging from one to four years and, needless to say, they love to play at our grass turf-covered playground.
Pasadena is home to the beautiful Huntington Library, the charming Old Pasadena Town, and the world-famous Parade of Roses which is held every New Year.

Dom and Luz are a very welcoming and caring couple. They will be most happy to make you discover their Philippine cuisine if you wish. I've been lucky enough to be "upgraded" in their brand new studio by the pool. Their home is conveniently located close to the metro station, 30 min. away only from downtown L.A

You then pay your host on arrival or as stated by your host on their profile and agreed by you on booking. Please be cautious if a host requests advance payment if its not included on their profile.
