This is a beautiful place that is so much nicer than what you might have in mind when you think of a basement apartment. There’s tons of natural light, and the floors and counters are new and very pretty. The decor is “minimalist shabby chic.” Perhaps it’s time for an upgrade on mattresses, pillows, and towels, and the accommodation does not provide toiletries such as shampoo and conditioner. Also, there is a washer but no drier, and 24 hours after we hung up our clean clothes on the drying rack, they were still wet and kind of mildewy smelling, causing us to take a trip to the laundromat. Nevertheless, it is an incredibly clean and spacious apartment in a GREAT neighborhood near lots of city buses and not too far to even walk into the tourist areas if you’re up for a bit of a fun trek. Audrey was prompt and cordial with her communication with us - a great host! My family really enjoyed staying at her place!
