Communication with our hostess was expedite ad very efficient. She explained clearly what to do upon arrival and key code, etc. We found a welcome jar of delicious homemade granola and some almond milk. I booked the place as part of a gift trip for my boyfriend's birthday and as soon as we walked into the studio/ apartment, he had to take a picture to share with his loved ones. He was very pleased as was I. The place was the perfect size for two and very cozy with lots of natural light but great drapery to block it to sleep in. We slept so comfortably and we did not hear at all the trash collection truck (even though it was a Wednesday and the rental info mentions that). We did not do any cooking but we did bring food to be reheated and we prepared coffee one morning, which was available in the kitchen along different sweeteners. The space was not cluttered which made it feel more spacious than it is. There were soaps and cleaning utensils to keep the kitchen area neat as well as a nice recycling receptacle to separate waste. Information about the place, neighborhood and city was available on site. The neighborhood was so quiet, clean and safe and close to everything. We had a rental car and had no problem getting to places very quickly. We'd recommend this carriage house apartment/ studio to others and would stay here again.
