Devin was an amazingly responsive host. She made thoughtful recommendations and we enjoyed many of the restaurants she suggested. The location is great…an easy walk to the train and we loved the neighborhood. We had a family emergency on the last day, and Devin was very gracious when we missed some of the check out steps.
Please note that as a young family, there were a couple of drawbacks:
1. Noise. The front two bedrooms face onto a very noisy street. We used a sound machine in my daughters room to try and block some of the traffic noise but we needed ear plugs every night. The third bedroom was locked but towards the back of the unit so maybe that is quieter?
2. The alarm system. Easy to use but it made us uneasy that the host wanted this used “for yours and my home’s safety”. The apartment is inside a locked building but it gave the impression that theft is an issue. Again not a big deal, but just made us question the safety of the location.
Overall we enjoyed our stay!
