Ethan’s abode was lovely. It’s tucked among trees behind some homes on a quiet residential street. It’s easily accessible from the highway and easy to find, though parking can be a bit challenging after dark. (Be aware of street cleaning days and times.) The outdoor kitchen was really cool (like living in a tree house!) and my favorite part were the limb remnants on the trees that held the pot and pan. The Airbnb was nice, though be aware that the locks stick a bit, and require a bit of jiggling to lock/unlock. The king bed was very comfy and the bathroom nice, but it does sport a teeny tiny shower. Good water pressure, though! Be aware of various steps in the apartment, especially the massive step down when you first walk in to the room. The kitchen has a French press coffee pot, a frying pan, another pan, two plates, two mugs, two glasses, some silverware, and minimal spices, etc. There is a small dorm-like fridge, which is convenient.
Ethan’s place had charm and was thoroughly enjoyable. You can hear interstate traffic from afar, but you are in a city. I didn’t get to meet my host, but he did communicate quite well via text before and during my stay, ensuring I had everything I needed.
Also, LUNA! She’s a sweet, gentle, friendly dog who enjoys pets and sweet words, and keeps an eye on you while being an affable host. She will bark when you arrive, but she always comes lumbering up for attention.
Highly recommend!
