Upon arrival the host walked us through the entire apartment, told us how everything worked, went over local attractions, went over the map, went over public transport, etc. We really felt very welcome.

The apartment is beautiful and very well decorated and has all the amenities. The kitchen is well stocked with supplies. The apartment is very spacious and was great for the 8 of us in our mid to late 20's to share. The water pressure and bathrooms were great. There is lots of storage space. There is A/C upstairs that keeps most of the apartment nice and cool. The roof deck looks over a private courtyard and is where we spent a lot of our time. The apartment is only 3 blocks for a subway entrance and was the perfect distance from the center of the city for us. Far enough away that we felt we were in a relaxing neighborhood, but close enough that we could be downtown in 15 minutes.
