Lakshmi is a fantastic host. She always responded promptly to questions and was incredibly kind and welcoming. Her apartment is spacious, clean, and comfortable. The bedroom includes a number of thoughtful touches including a thorough list of neighborhood restaurants and bars, quality linens and blankets, drinking water, and ample storage space. Finally, her dog Reynaldo is the sweetest co-host who will enthusiastically greet you at the door and make you feel at home.
