The host has done a wonderful job with her basement, it was super clean and very impressive! Looks better in person than in the pictures. Very attentive host, replied to our messages right away, and was thorough in explaining all the amenities the room had to offer. Parking was convenient, and was not the typical driveway of a house, so it was easy to get in and out of the small parking lot she built. She offered us more pillows, large towels, and bedding, which was a really nice touch, and made a big difference for our comfort levels when we slept at night or had showers. Having basic commodities such as shampoo, conditioner, dish soap, etc., made the whole stay head ache free, especially since it was an impromptu stay. If you come you really just need to bring your clothes and toothbrush! It came in handy to use the washer/dryer, and we generally felt she had thought of everything a person might need for a comfortable stay (i.e. oven mitts, hand towels, etc.). We were originally going to stay at the Holiday Inn (no vacancy for those days), but were pleasantly surprised that this ended up being so much better! The host even lent us clean slippers so we wouldn't need to wall around in socks on the hardwood floors, and by the way the bathroom is small but is newly renovated, and she keeps it astonishingly clean. It is a quiet residential area, definitely family friendly (but probably not a good place for parties). We found it difficult to buy take out food in the middle of the night (which is when we got back to our room most days), not much open late at night in the area, but there are pizza places nearby, and we also ordered Chinese food on one occasion. This was our first experience with airbnb, and it was definitely a good one, I would say this location is a gem.
