Quiet, centrally located, and clean!
Josh's apartment is on a main thoroughfare, but inside, you would never know it. Tucked behind the main house, the apartment felt like a secret hideaway. Quiet, lots of light pouring into the kitchen/dining area, and courteous neighbors. Within walking distance to the grocery store, a pizza shop, some coffee shops, and plenty of dining establishments. As some other reviewers have stated, parking can be challenging; I would not suggest this place if you have a phobia of parallel parking or require easy accessibility from car to door. Finding street parking during the day or early evening was easy, but we often returned from day trips at night after 9 p.m. and spent at least 15 minutes trying to find a spot, often several blocks away. Those using Uber/Lyft or parking during the day should be fine.
Though we never encountered Josh face to face, he was very communicative and made sure we had his girlfriend's contact information when he left town. Before we arrived, I had expressed to Josh that I was sensitive to some cleaning agents, so he and his girlfriend went out of their way to ensure the apartment was cleaned as naturally as possible. This was an extra step that indicates a superstar host! In addition, he made sure our walkway and steps were shoveled after a snowfall.
Other notables: Kitchen table makes a great well-lit workspace. Check the pantry and fridge for staples before grocery shopping - we found some decent leftovers! Bathroom shower is so wonderfully spacious, but bathroom itself is rather small - if you have more than 2 guests, it would be wise to negotiate primping time. Wooden floors throughout are lovely, but the floor can get chilly - I suggest packing some toasty slippers! Apartment doesn't have a microwave or dressers/drawers for clothes, although there is a linen closet that I'm sure could be emptied for longer-term guests needing storage space. Comfy bed and pull-out couch - my husband and I rotated between the two during our stay!
