Gabe's place turned out even better than expected. The location is central, but hidden so there's not much traffic and it's quiet (especially at night). The house is small, but all of the fixtures, paint and furniture are brand new and well appointed. I felt comfortable and the vibe was very positive.
Gabe is an excellent host. He's very positive, mindful, and easy to get along with. His taste in decoration is amusing, high tech, and musical. There were no eye-sores or messy corners anywhere, so I felt relaxed and surrounded by a nice, clean, well-designed home.
All linens, towels, soap were provided... everything I needed during my stay. Parking was easy. Wifi was fast. The kitchen is brand new and features high-quality appliances.
Be aware there is a dog in the house, his name is Bodhi, and he is a very sweet and gentle dog who only barked once during my almost 2-week stay (he barked when he heard someone he didn't know at the door). IOW, he's an awesome and welcome presence in the house.
Great place, great host, great stay!
