Karl was a very communicative host, always responding within the hour whenever a message was sent. The listing is accurate for the most part, and provided an acceptable experience for our group (we were in town for a conference and were hardly at the unit). Like many of the reviews have mentioned, please note the following before booking this unit:
1. This is a basement apartment with a narrow stairwell for entry. Not a problem for us but could very well be for others.
2. It is located on a LOUD and BUSY street. With paper thin walls, you can hear everything going on outside. If you are a light sleeper, you're better off booking elsewhere
3. There is a unit above, which provides for a lot of noise - to no fault of the guests - I blame it on the thin ceiling is incredibly thin and the noise travels!
4. This unit needs a little TLC. the bathroom could use a deep clean and some repairs in the walls. The back bedroom smelled of cheap perfume.
5. This is a transitional neighborhood with lots to admire, but it is not necessarily for everyone.
Thanks for reading and happy travels!
