Barbara is a very nice person. She was very accommodating in allowing open check in times. She is quite enjoyable to talk with and will try to make your stay as good as possible. Her unit is in a secure condo; 2nd story (no elevator) but nice building. She has a fully stocked kitchen, Wifi, and is walking distance to Howard El stop, a grocery store, and shopping. I easily found free street parking. This particular room is really for 1 guest only (small) but it worked fine for me. The shared bathroom is newly done with nice rain head shower and is as pictured.
