Claire is a great host. The house had everything I needed, small shower, restroom, washer/dryer, hanger, dish ware, small electric cooktop, fridge etc. The area is fairly quiet with the exception of occasional parties walking by at times on the weekend. The house is not next to the street so the doors that you need to walk through did dampen the noise (I'm a light sleeper) which is why I mention these things. Stayed here for about two weeks and loved it.
