results of luisa's reconaissance:

there are no really 'bad' parts of pasadena on this end of town. so they're really all ok, i mean, i'd stay at any of them.

2131/Travelodge and 2156/Ramada are right across the street from each other, and close enough in that they are on the rose parade route, but not so close to PCC that you'll get tons of noise.

there's a 2462/Comfort Inn that you might also like.

the other two you listed are much further out, slightly more 'desolate suburbia' and an ever so slightly seedier neighborhood. in addition to 3321/Quality Inn and 3500/Holiday Inn, there's a Best Western Pasadena pretty much right there too, which would also be fine.

hope this helps.
