Saad and Christopher are excellent hosts - super helpful and responsive. For example, they were able to create a local parking permit for us right after we got our rental car, which saved us from having to pay for parking during our stay. Their two-story flat is quite nice and well cared for, and feels “loved.”
As other have mentioned, this is a city apartment with some city features. On the plus side, there’s a lot of walkable businesses like restaurants and coffee shops right out the door. The metro and library are very close. On the negative side, there’s a fair amount of city noise which gets more pronounced when the bar next door is crowded, or the school across the street is full of kids playing. There are also people panhandling right outside, although I never felt unsafe.
The apartment is very nice and functional albeit with limited natural light. The kitchen is functional and lightly stocked - e.g. if you love coffee plan go next door or buy your own across the street.
