I am happy that Cat was my first host on airbnb as she was a great ambassador for the service! I'd say the apartment looked even better in real life and communication with Cat was quick and easy. The balcony would be a great space to use when the weather is warmer and drier :-) A few cafes are within a block for weekday coffees and lunches, and a couple of blocks further away is the heart of the Northbridge restaurant scene, for dining in the evenings and on weekends. Thanks again!
