This is a beautiful home that is the crown jewel of its neighborhood! It's in an easy-to-find, older part of town that appears to be a relatively quiet and safe area. We arrived late after driving all day to get there, and there was a lockbox, so that wasn't a problem. We were there during a July heat wave, and I admit that I was wondering how we were going to survive without A/C in this place, even though basements do tend to be cooler. But we were pleasantly surprised to find a large box fan in the bigger bedroom and a rotating fan in the other bedroom. Once we turned the box fan on, we were completely comfortable, and the white noise from the fan drowned out occasional traffic noise. Further, the drapes were all light-blocking drapes, which not only was good for sleeping, but also may have helped to keep the place cool. The apt. is tastefully decorated and includes a nice full kitchen. The towels are thick and thirsty, and there are good quality hair products provided (for us it was Pantene). But a place is potentially only as good as its hosts, and Steve & Lynne did not fall short! They had just the right amount of communication; touching base before our arrival, welcoming us after we arrived and asking if there was anything that we needed, and saying goodbye when we left. When we communicated with them, they responded in a timely fashion. We are so glad we found this place!
