We had a great stay at Desi's place! Communication was smooth, as was check-in and check-out procedures. Since it's a basement apartment, there's limited light coming in and it's good for sleeping in. Fix Coffee + Bikes is just a block or so away-- great coffee! There's also a grocery store down the street. Apartment was clean and had all the basics that we needed (kitchen is stocked with plates, cups, pots, etc.)-- we didn't cook but we did boil some eggs for breakfast and heat up leftovers. The bed was very comfortable and the sofa bed was comfortable enough (not quite as comfortable as the bed, but that's pretty standard). Shower was great (always important!!).
