Everything is clean, fresh and new. The only disappointment was the washer and dryer were broken, but there are laundries in the area that are drop off or self serve. They neighborhood is nice with cute coffee shops, Asian restaurants and beautiful Catholic Churches with Latin Mass available. It is a safe S Side area. I let the host know I wanted to book a longer stay and he was fine that, but didn't block the calendar so when I went to extend and pay for my stay, someone else already had and that put me in a bind. I would stay there again though and recommend the host despite the hiccups.
