I'll break down the review by hosts, location, room, and common areas.
The Hosts: We didn't get to personally meet DeCarlis but communication was great. He always responds in a timely manner and he is more than helpful, detailed, and all around genuine. Dan was very nice and accommodating when we had questions or requests. He stays in his room mostly so it leaves the common areas to yourself.
The Location: Everything you will need is within walking distance. You have access to multiple shops, restaurants, bars, transit, and even a smoke shop if that's your thing. Lyft and Uber drivers are always within a 2-3 minute wait.
The Room: The room looks exactly as pictured. The bed is super comfortable and the aroma therapy adds a nice touch. The mood lights were pretty awesome as well. Plenty of storage space and room for two people.
The Common Areas: The apartment is pretty clean and maintained. You usually tend to have the living room to yourself if you choose to hang out there. If you're a smoker I suggest going to the Zen garden instead of the front. The Zen garden is really pretty and relaxing if the weather is nice. Sharing the bathroom was never much of an issue.
All in all it was a great stay. My only issue was that the apartment tends to get super cold. It can make it uncomfortable at times. Since it's an older building there's no heating/cooling system. There wasn't much to remedy how cold it got so I didn't see to ask about it. There are plenty of blankets and comforters around the apartment though so it helped a bit.
