Pros
1. Sufficient kitchen supplies. No need to worry how to cook food. The host supplies salt, oil, tea bags, extra trash bags, etc..
2. Free street parking near the house. The host provides detailed instruction of where to park on the visitor parking permit.
3. Clean rooms and wonderful decorations. All the paintings on the walls have brief introduction about the art work. It is like living in a art gallery.
4. The host responses to messages in a timely manner.
Cons:
1. The apartment locates in the basement, so it is easy to hear noise from upstairs.
2. The air conditioning has loud noise approximately three times a hour when it is working. My boyfriend and I found it extremely disturbing at night. After we talked to the host, he turned off the air conditioning at night for 4 nights during our stay (7 nights).
