We didn't meet Marin but the arrangements went smoothy. The apartment is in a great location and it was very comfortable. Appreciated the water pressure in that great shower, the nice soft towels, the fresh flowers, and the Kiehl's shampoo and conditioner. Marin also kindly let me use her Clipper card and it was nice to be able to rent a free movie. If you sleep on the sofa you'll be woken up by the traffic noise and the morning light but the bedroom is quiet and dark. The apartment is well furnished in an eclectic style - the only slightly freaky thing is the animal skins on the floor which we had to temporarily hide! All in all, A+ - thanks Marin!
