This was like staying at a friend's place--warm, welcoming and comfortable, with the things you need to have a good and relaxing stay, whether in the space or outside. It's not luxurious, but I didn't want luxurious. Sometimes you just want a clean, nicely organized space, a comfortable bed, and good, hot shower. This delivered on all those fronts.
This was a pass-through stop for me en route to Florida, and while I did go out for a short while, I spent most of my time recording a 7-hour podcast, so I really appreciated that the space was on a lower level and had good acoustics and lighting for that. Sounds like an irrelevant point, but it mattered to me. I could even play my guitar through a small amp and not bother others. A real win.
I liked that the place was fairly central and the neighborhood diverse, and Katie, one of the hosts, was cheerful, accommodating and quick to respond.
Parking is a little challenging, but I got a spot on the street, fairly close by. The hosts provide parking passes, but I didn't need it on that day. There is a small flight of steps up and down to the unit, which was slightly tiring with luggage, but not a huge deal. It was quiet and the street sounds were not at all disruptive.
All in all, a great and friendly stay! I would book again, no hesitation.
