Hotel Le Reve Pasadena

The breakfast has very good. My husband loved that they had eggs and chorizo and beans. The cook made pancakes on demand. My husband thought it was better than Holiday Inn Express.

We arrived at 5 pm and our room was not ready. The cleaning lady said there had been some mistake. So we went back to the office and the receptionist was surprised to hear that. She said something about getting us a different room but after looking at the computer she said she would go talk to the cleaning lady and ask her to finish up quickly. So we went to dinner and went to our room afterwards. I was disappointed to realize that the floors weren't carpeted. I honestly thought from the photos that this was a nicer hotel than it was. Maybe I didn't look at the photos closely enough? The reception / breakfast area was like the photos but the room was not. I would probably have liked Best Western better and paid the same price. My son spilled some water and we realized the bathroom had no tissues. So we used a hand towel to wipe up the water. The towel came up pretty dirty. I'm not sure how clean is reasonable for the floor but it was a little gross to see the towel come up dirty.

Free hot breakfast offered excellent pancakes, cooked to order. Actually like a motel, so no hotel amenities.

210 Freeway is next to motel, so noise level is shockingly high at all times. Sink stopper was missing from drain. One elevator to service 3 floors is located for maids and laundry service at the farthest corner of the property. Not convenient for guests.
