I'm not one for writing reviews... This is what my wife had to say: This was our very first experience with AirBnB and we were not disappointed. The basement was furnished just like a chic, fun apartment. My sister-in-law stayed in one bedroom, my husband and I stayed in the other, and my two teenage boys shared the living room which had more than enough space thanks to a full size futon as well as a couch. They also loved the fact they could watch Netflix and DVDs that were available to them so they were well entertained at night while the rest of us were resting after a long, full day. We were able to make breakfast every morning in the fully furnished kitchen and eat together in the little dining area. There was a beautiful and whimsical patio outside complete with seating area and grill. Parking on the street was easy and our upstairs neighbors were courteous and quiet. The beds were comfortable, there was plenty of space for our clothes and things, and the water pressure in the shower was great as well. Monet and Cris left a basket with toiletries in case we forgot anything, and we were grateful for that after our son accidentally knocked his toothbrush into the trash. They even left bottles of water in the fridge for us upon arrival, as well as paper towels, sponges, cleaning supplies, detergent, fresh towels, really anything and everything we might need for our stay was right there. All we had to do was take the trash and recycling out every few days and before we left we threw the towels in the washing machine. And by the way, having a washer and dryer was incredibly convenient because it meant we only had to pack a few outfits each, a major advantage considering we were driving halfway across the country in one vehicle with five people! A couple notes I would make: We were in between two metro stations, one being closer than the other but I would not really consider it within close walking distance. We chose to drive and park each day and just spend an extra couple dollars. Also, occasionally in the mornings or at night it felt extremely cold which I welcomed but not everyone in our family felt the same way. We never were able to figure out how to adjust any sort of thermostat so that might be something to address with each guest upon check-in. We never actually met our hosts and my son was kind of disappointed about that because he wanted to rave about how much he enjoyed his day. He didn't seem to understand that most people would find it a benefit to the left alone to their own devices. :) All in all it was a really great experience and at around $900 for eight nights, an absolute steal and way better than any deal we would've gotten on a hotel room! I would most...
