Photos of Carol's place are very accurate and the house is about 15 minutes walking distance from two metro stops. Parking is free in the street and there is plenty of space to park a car. Carol did a great job of providing local tips and advice on getting around. This place is in a basement of a house. The neighborhood is very safe and family-oriented. Aside from minor delays in communication and challenges in getting the microwave to work, I had a very pleasant stay at Carol's!
