Randi’s place is fantastic!
I stayed for two weeks while traveling for work and this apartment was perfect for my needs. I was working at the Belfry Theatre located a quick 10 minute walk from the apartment in Fernwood Square (there’s great restaurants there as well). Downtown is also an easy 20 minute walk.
Wellburn’s Market is half a block away and was cheap and great for basic groceries. I liked Market on Yates better, but it’s a bit further and Wellburn’s is just fine in a pinch.
The neighborhood is very safe. I walked to and from the theatre every day, often coming home around midnight and never once felt uneasy. Same goes for the apartment, I felt perfectly safe there, and as a woman who often travels alone, this is always something I’m weary of when choosing Airbnbs. Rest assured, Randi’s place is a great spot!
The kitchen is well stocked with utensils and cookware (much appreciated as I was working and not trying to go to restaurants every day).
The bathtub is the very best thing about this apartment. It’s huge and very comfortable for lounging after a full day of walking the city (and very clean!) Do not miss an opportunity to use it!
