Overall my stay was great! Cleanliness and location were a big part of why I rated Lucia’s place so highly. :-) She was so communicative and even recommended the perfect place for my mom and I to have dinner. (They we’re open late and had great vegetarian options for both my mom and I.) The only things that I would note to think about-
1) Finding parking was a challenge. We did arrive late in the evening so I’m sure this contributed, but it was difficult to find a close spot when trying to bring our luggage at night.
2) I really didn’t like that there were no curtains on the windows in the front facing the street. It’s a basement apartment, and there is a hedge in front of one of the windows, but an interested person would be able to walk by and see everything going on inside the apartment. It is all one room, and there is nothing to give total privacy from the street.
3) The futon was not great to sleep on at all. To be fair, I let my mom have the bed, which was very comfy from what she said. But the futon couch was painful, so I’ll just leave it at that. (I really think this place would be best suited towards a couple sharing, just FYI.)
