Rachel was an excellent host. Prior to arrival she was extremely easy and friendly to communicate with, and then was very accommodating regarding check-in (and out). The room is lovely and spacious, with a comfortable divan bed but also a large comfortable chair and a Juliette balcony, making it a great space to relax or read in, as well as sleep. The location is also great, in a smart and quiet tree-lined street but only minutes from bus stops and a station on the red line. The bathroom is spacious and immaculate, and there is a well equipped kitchen which Rachel was happy for me to use.
The added touches that Rachel provides are great, from a huge array of local tips, to fresh chilled water in your room when you return back to the apartment, and the offer of laundering your dirty clothes. She even noticed and mended a hole in one of my shirts!! Rachel has 2 lovely dogs, Agnes and Barney. They are both calm and very friendly and a real pleasure to be around. Overall it was a great stay, Rachel was one of the most friendly and accommodating hosts I’ve had the pleasure of meeting, and the space was great too.
