The apartment was warm, comfortable, and well-maintained. It gets good light, and is well-equipped in terms of the kitchen, TV, furniture, etc. I was there during the winter, but during the warmer weather they have a beautiful garden. The neighborhood is great, with good access to public transportation, and lots of diverse restaurants.

The apartment was everything that was advertised, and it was a lovely place to stay. Richard and Cathy are the best hosts imaginable. They were generous, hospitable, and helpful in every possible way. They helped enormously with advice about the neighborhood and the city, provided me with a bike, took care of my car when I was out of town, and took in packages for me. They genuinely like being hosts, and it's apparent in every way. More than landlords, they were wonderful friends and neighbors.
