I booked this airbnb as a quiet place to recover from a surgery and I'm so glad I chose this particular spot. Alison is a wonderful and communicative host and her kindness and understanding went way beyond my expectations. I was spending a lot of time in bed and she was so nice and washed the linens mid-week for me. Little things like that make such a big difference when you're in pain. The studio is charming with a retro little kitchen and bathroom. There are quirks like in any old building, but I'd rather stay in an older apartment with character than a rental that has been gutted and remodeled into a boring minimalist box. The best part of this place is the backyard. It's so quiet, and the sound of the wind through the branches of the giant old Japanese maple tree was magical. If you're looking for a quiet place to work, write, heal, or just refresh yourself, I highly recommend staying here.
