Hotel Dena, Pasadena Los Angeles, a Tribute Portfolio Hotel

6/10 Okay

"My stay at Hotel Dena was a mixed experience. The check-in process was fast, efficient, and friendly, which made for a great first impression. The property itself is dated but generally clean and well-maintained. However, the hallways leading to our second-floor room had an old, stuffy odor, and unfortunately the same stagnant smell was noticeable when we first entered the room. We ended up keeping the air conditioning running all night to help circulate the air and make the room more comfortable. The room had some maintenance issues. While the balcony was a nice feature, the sliding door did not lock securely. Additionally, the blackout curtains were not functioning properly and could not be opened or closed as intended. On a positive note, the bed was very comfortable, and we slept well once the room aired out. The hotel bar closed before 11 p.m., it was Tues. We also dined at Lyric restaurant, which was clean and welcoming. The staff there were excellent. Maria stood out in particular—she took the time to engage with us, ask about our stay, and have a genuinely pleasant conversation. She was warm, friendly, and very helpful. Our other server was wonderful as well, though unfortunately I cannot recall her name. Both contributed to a positive dining experience. Overall, while the hotel could benefit from updates and better attention to room maintenance and ventilation, the friendly staff, comfortable bed, and positive experience at Lyric helped make the stay enjoyable."

Pasadena Rose & Crown Hotel

6/10 Okay

"TLDR: Borderline unusable gym, thin walls, but great location The rooms were clean enough and the staff was friendly. HOWEVER, the walls were very thin so in the first night we were woken up several times, twice by cars and once by a girl locked out of her room loudly complaining to customer support and proceeded to get louder when another guest asked them to keep it down. Secondly, as an avid hotel gym goer I was extremely disappointed by the hotel gym. First off, the hours were 9am to 9pm. This doesn't make any sense to me, even on late start days I was starting work or leaving the hotel for activities by 9am so it's impossible to use the gym beforehand. Then with all the great food places and nighttime entertainments we were out till 8pm every night at least. I was having to rush to make it back to the hotel to badge in before the gym would lock up. But even if you make it into the gym, there's only three equipment: an all in one cable machine contraption, an elliptical, and a treadmill. Maybe I've been spoiled but this is the first hotel I've stayed at without a water filling station in the gym. Also there's no yoga mats which seems like such low hanging fruit for a hotel gym to have. Mainly, the treadmill sounded like it was struggling and it would randomly but consistently switch to cool down mode so I was having to actively fight it ever 3 minutes. Great location though, if they just changed the gym hours and fixed the treadmill I'd come again."

"I returned to this hotel for my annual trip, having stayed here several times in the past and always remembering it as a quality property. The staff remained friendly, professional, and accommodating, and the property itself continues to have many positive qualities. Unfortunately, this visit fell well below the standard I had come to expect. The king room I reserved was noticeably disappointing. Upon arrival, the bedding appeared less than clean, which immediately raised concerns about the room’s upkeep. Additionally, the television service was not functioning because the cables had been disconnected. While I was able to resolve the issue myself, guests should not have to troubleshoot basic room amenities during their stay. The most significant letdown was the bathroom. It felt outdated, worn, and in need of renovation, detracting from the overall comfort and quality of the room. Not The condition of the bathroom made the accommodations feel far below what I remembered from previous visits. What makes this especially disappointing is that I have genuinely enjoyed staying here in the past. Based on those experiences, I arrived expecting the same level of quality and attention to detail. Sadly, this stay did not deliver that experience and has left me considering other lodging options for future visits. I hope management takes this feedback constructively, as this property has the potential to provide a much better guest experience than what I encountered during this stay."
