What a great place. The hostess has thought of many small touches (like power strips). The space is clean, comfortable, extremely well lighted and enough natural light even though it's a basement. Plenty of closet space. The couches are comfortable for sleeping. A full kitchen that had everything I needed. And if there was anything I wanted, Kate responded quickly and generously. The house and local attractions manuals are the best I have seen. And really accurate. (Don't miss the aquarium! And the Allen Gardens - free botanical gardens). The location is amazing for catching a bus or the streetcar on your way to the subway. Its an easy walk to busy streets full of restaurants, a grocery, banks, bars, fruit markets, etc. (I'm afraid I won't be able to stay anywhere else, it was such a great location for me). (There's an ice cream place that I must get back to) .
It is not a place to stay if you are over 6'4". And the floor is cold because it's a basement.
The neighborhood is so much fun to walk through, and I walked A LOT. Even at 10 pm, I felt safe.
I'm sure I will be back.
