Everything is clean, neat/tidy, there's a fridge and stove/oven and things you can cook with if you choose to. I was so happy to see that the bathroom was nice and clean. Because of school my boyfriend and I had to leave around 2:30-3pm from NJ and we made it to Luz's place by 9:15PM and she was very nice/understanding and accommodating to let us check in at that time. Parking isn't really an issue(at least not in November.. maybe not as many people touristing?) we found street parking very easily every night that we came back from downtown. If you want guaranteed parking Luz offers her parking for $5 a day. The only thing is that the location is a good 20-25 minute drive from downtown which is basically where there's everything to do/see, it wasn't an issue or a deal-breaker for us. Not sure how long it would take on the metro which apparently is close by to her home. I don't know because again we had a car and drove everywhere. Thank you again Luz we loved your home!
