Beautiful historic B&B
The Bissell House was owned at one time by the inventor of the Bissell hand sweeper. It is managed by a family of adults. Everything about it is elegant. The breakfasts are superb.

MUST STAY!!
It was my first B&B and it sold me on never doing a hotel again! Awesome people run this house and it was just amazing! I got a free upgrade to a King and the room was clean and lovely, bed was super comfy!! If I didn't live closer, I would rebook! I ever do another 3 day conference you can bet I am staying here! Thank you again for all the amazing service! Just don't drive a large truck or you will have to park on the street. :) -Sam RN

A Hidden Gem in South Pasadena
We just had a quick overnight stay. The house was surprisingly quiet for such an "old" house, the beds were comfy and the bathroom was adequate. Breakfast was delicious and our host was friendly, informative and welcoming. We would definitely stay there again.

Quaint & Charming Victorian
We stayed here because my husband had a holiday dinner, an easy walk a few short blocks away. It is a lovely neighborhood. We had been here once before several years ago. We were very lucky and got an upgrade to a "grand suite." The service is great, all the little touches delightful, (especially being the Holidays) and Jules made a great breakfast! She is very hospitable. When you factor in that parking and internet are FREE and you get breakfast, it's a good deal. My only complaint was the bed was a bit saggy in the middle, and when you are used to a King size bed, a Queen is all the more intimate and noticeable.

Bissell house Port in a Storm
Needed a place to stay for a night during home construction, and Bissell House was so personal and nice compared to going to a sterile hotel. The breakfast alone was so delicious it was worth 3/4 of the value!
