The Hills Inn Eagle Rock - Near Old Town Pasadena

I feel a little bad leaving this review. I normally only book at places that are rated by guests as 4+ stars. The good: - the service desk people were lovely, prompt, and very helpful. - the daily breakfast was good - you get to make your own waffles! And the peach yoghurt! There are 3 kinds of cereals, 2 bread, bagel, muffin, fruit; there are scrambled (ish) eggs daily and either sausages or hash or bacon as the other hot option. Tea, coffee, apple and orange juice. - the bed itself was pretty comfy The bad: - the pillows were lumpy. I have never felt such lumpy pillows in my life. - the room smelled - I am unsure what of, but it was acrid/musty/ something - reminded me a bit of carpet cleaning solution maybe?? - the air conditioning turns itself auto on/off, there is no continuous air option (or maybe the button is broken?) - this meant I was oscillating between too hot and cool enough when I was sleeping, woke up sweating a few times The unsure: - didn't try the pool.

This is a terrible old 1950s motel. It is noisy, in an industrial area. They have a pool that has people jumping in and out all night long so you can’t sleep. It is very disturbing. The rooms are old and not modern or kept up. The photos are not accurate. They also charge high prices to your credit card as a deposit that they don’t advertise on the booking website. They then may or may not even refund that deposit. The good news is you can call your credit card company and dispute the charge.

EVERYTHING is good, environment is clean, price is affordable ! I recently stayed here and had a very pleasant experience. The location was perfect—close to public transportation, restaurants, and local attractions. The staff were extremely friendly and helpful, always ready to assist with any questions or needs. My room was clean, comfortable, and well-equipped with everything I needed, including free Wi-Fi, toiletries, and a cozy bed. The daily housekeeping service was efficient and consistent.

My room was clean and comfortable and very quiet. That’s what’s important to me when I come to California to visit family. The location is perfect and there are some great restaurants nearby. Checking in was very quick and the ladies at the front desk were very nice and knowledgeable.
