I've stayed in basement appartments before and they have all been pretty noisy.. But Pauls place is different! It's so quiet in there. The ceilings are high and the only noise I could hear were footsteps... sometimes. The space was VERY clean and well presented. Bed was comfortable and he gave us extra touches like a fan and extra comforter. There is a corner store just a few steps away so we were able to get bread so we could enjoy some toast in the morning before we head downtown. We walked to the beaches and enjoyed some local restautant vibes. Super cool place!!
