I chose Carol's rental because of its proximity to the house of my friends who were hosting a wedding reception, and I was very pleased with everything. Carol was very gracious and friendly, and check-in and check-out were a breeze because she lives upstairs and was there to give me the key and take it back when I left. She had provided both sweet and savory snacks that were much appreciated late at night, plus she loaned me an iron and small ironing board so I could press my dress shirt.
The apartment is a garden-level unit that has been remodeled in a tasteful, modern way. The bathroom especially is quite nice and has a big, walk-in shower. I didn't realize (or had forgotten after I made the reservation) that the bed is a Murphy bed that is stored in a closet and gets pulled down, but I found the mattress to be quite comfortable and didn't have any problems sleeping. There is a big, comfortable couch as well. I felt very much at home and wished I could have stayed for another night.
