I was very comfortable in my one-month stay at Rachel's. The place was clean, and is thoughtfully designed and stylishly furnished, and the location cannot be beat. The shower is perfect and the storage ample. The kitchen is a true kitchen and highly functioning, with everything one would need for preparing meals. I found this especially helpful when eating out was not so practical. Most unexpected is the bank of large windows that allows plenty of sun and natural light, and uplifting view of people and families with children/pets enjoying the slow-street just right below. I did have a little concern about the construction next door, but that turned out to be totally fine. The heavy-duty work seemed to have been completed, and the noise from their ongoing work was low and infrequent, noticeable only from the kitchen area. Rachel and her team were always attentive to the tiny issues that cropped up during my stay, and I could not have asked for more.
All in all, I would choose to stay at Rachel's place again if I need to be in the area.
