We stayed a week in January. The apartment despite being a basement one is great. Its spacious, very well amended, all one needs to have in the living room or in the kitchen is there. One could feel as a home with books on the shelf (I already started one of them so, need to buy it for continue reading).
We had enough information of the area, nearby there are different bus stops. Capitol is only 20 min walk, we've done it almost every day and Eastern market some 25 min walk, which is worth to visit.. O At the corner of F str NE and 2nd str NE there is a coffee place (Bliss Cafe), where you could find lovely owners with great coffee (not Italian one ;) and lovely sandwiches, and it is only 10 min walk. We use to go almost every day.
The room has a good big bed quite enough for two. One could get to the yard from there, we didn't do it as not enough time and being in the winter it was not the brightest idea :).
As being a basement Liza & Tom are give guests enough additional heating possibilities, which is very nice. We used one of them in the living room, as
The bathroom is spacious and has enough space for any personal stuff you could have on a trip. All was perfectly clean.
We didn't met Liza & Tom, but our exchange was very warm and we really felt if we need them they will immediately pop up to help us.
I would definitely recommend this place for any kind of stay! Thank you very much Liza and Tom to be at your place!
p.s. Liza and Tom with their family live the house too and their space is over the apartment. So you could here them. But it is not disturbing at all. I am writhing this, as in some previous comments there was people complaining. I would say, being in a house there are some noises, that are the usual for a house and are not at all disturbing.
