This was our first experience with airbnb. Arriving later in the evening after a long ride, we found the apartment exactly as pictured and described. What a beautiful place! The furnishings were comfortable, the decor was clean and uncluttered, and the fixtures, appliances, and accessories were like brand-new. The kitchen was stocked with the necessary items for simple cooking. The bed linens felt five-star quality. The coffee, soaps, and toiletries provided were a nice touch. Extra paper supplies were easy to find. Instructions for keys and door locks were easy to understand as were the other items described in the house manual. The building seemed very secure, and we felt safe in the neighborhood. We lucked out with a parking space right in front! If there were other people in the building, we didn't hear them. Mark seemed extremely patient with our many questions and emails and answered each one almost immediately. I feel like we hit a home run renting this apartment: great owner, great rate, great place, and a great location!
