I really can't express how blown away I was by our stay at Zen Garden. The hosts were very prompt with communication, and I have never stayed in a cleaner hotel, let alone Airbnb. It was absolutely immaculate and well-appointed. The hosts went out of their way to offer little touches such as extra pillows, water in the fridge, a fan, space heater, etc. They really did think of everything that we could possibly need to make our stay comfortable.
One of my biggest concerns when traveling as a single female is safety, and I was a little hesitant staying outside of the city, not knowing what the neighborhood would be like, but my concerns were quickly put to rest when I arrived. The home sits on a very quiet and isolated street, very much tucked away from the hustle and bustle. I was able to park my car in the road right in front of the front door so I was only steps away as well. I never felt unsafe at any time.
Driving into the city was pretty easy and straightforward. It took about 15 minutes average, or about 25 during rush hour. We had no issues also taking an Uber when we didn't feel like dealing with the hassle of parking downtown. Ubers were always readily available, and I noticed there's a bus stop not too far from the house within walking distance.
I don't usually go out of my way to leave such lengthy reviews, however I really can't speak highly enough about our stay. I wish we had had more time to really enjoy the kitchen area and outdoor backyard seating area as well. I would highly recommend this Airbnb to anyone looking. Do not hesitate. It's such a great find and stay.
