Stellar accommodations and hospitality! My family stayed here for a month while we were transitioning to move to the suburbs. By the end of the first week, we reconsidered our move because our experience in this city dwelling was so amazing. Larissa made us feel at home and the girls adjusted very quickly. Maybe it was her delicious homemade Ukrainian honey cookies and gelato, or the kiddie pool by her secret garden, or maybe it was just her motherly nature and warm smile that made us all feel so comfortable.
The location was perfect! Situated in a charming tree lined street, yet easily walkable to work (2 minute walk to the hospital), restaurants and bakeries galore and playgrounds. Parking was easy, as there was always a spot close to "home." Living close to bike lines, we also were able to bike with the kids in tow on the sunny days. On the weekends, we would run into the friendly neighbors on the sidewalk and share pleasantries. It had a European like atmosphere.
Overall, we cannot thank "Mrs. Larissa" and "Mr. Bill" enough for their kindness and welcoming us into their home (literally, they even had us for dinner). Our transition was seamless. If we venture back into the city and need a place to stay, we are definitely coming back to this 5 star gem.
