Connie is a great host. Very communicative and willing to help and accommodate. A last minute addition of bringing my baby along was met with apologies from Connie who was grateful the travel cot was still there.
We were only there for two days and had a car so the location was pretty good. August is a crazy busy month so make sure to prepare for the craziness of the city.
The Apartment:
NO WIFI!!!! This isn't a complaint. Connie put this in the listing, but for those who don't think to check, just be prepared.
Stairs only! Up two flights of stairs.
The residents below are very loud so this could bother some people. When you are in a busy city, things like this are bound to happen, but be sure to take earplugs if you are sensitive. This, of course, has nothing to do with Connie or the apartment so no fault there.
The apartment is pretty bare bones and there is no way two people properly fit on the couch.
There are no photos of the outside, and I think this would've helped prepare for the stark contrast of the townhouses on the main road and the street of the building which is less take care of. There were some rowdy characters on the street a few times, but this happens everywhere, just always have to play it safe when in a city.
To echo everyone else, the place smells clean as soon as you walk in. The bed was probably the most comfortable I've stayed in and the communication with Connie really shows how much she cares.
