Ernesto and Anthony were very accommodating, signing us up for Marriott Bonvoy membership.
They provided early check-in and later checkout.
They were informative about Pasadena.
They were helpful to find a quiet room.

We stayed for leisure and had a great experience. The hotel is modern, clean, and comfortable, with an excellent bar area that was perfect for relaxing. The street views overlooking downtown Pasadena were a nice touch and added to the overall vibe. We also brought our Yorkie, Sylvester, and the experience was seamless for him as well. I’d absolutely recommend AC Hotel Pasadena to friends or business associates.

The staff was very friendly and the hotel was very clean. The only negative comment I have is the rootop restaurant - Osa. The service was very very slow and poor customer service. Although the burger was good, the fries were so salty they burned our mouth.

I want to give a shoutout to Roman for his excellent customer service when he checked us in at Nece at the breakfast bar. The amenities were spotless, and the hotel offered lovely lounging areas.
