I stayed in Geeta's garden apartment for almost six weeks. Overall, it was excellent. The bed is super comfortable; the pans in the kitchen are of good quality; the full-size stove, oven, and toaster oven all work well (important for me, as I cooked most of my meals at home—though the oven runs about 30 degrees hot). There's great water pressure in the shower, and good hot water and heat throughout the unit. The linens and towels are really nice.
Geeta is pleasant and kind; she was very responsive to messages and we chatted for a while when I checked in. Knowing I planned to cook, she offered to let me use her personal cookware and extra ingredients. Because I'd brought the stuff I needed, I never took her up on any of it, but I was grateful to have been received so warmly.
Parking was easy and always close. There's no regular snow removal or street cleaning in the immediate area, so you don't have to worry about that. The neighbors were pretty good about shoveling snow, and you can shovel too, if you want! The neighborhood overall is very calm. The coffee shop across the street is lovely.
For people who are particularly sensitive to noise: there are several musicians (Geeta's tenants) who live upstairs. You will hear piano, guitars, bass, or drums throughout the day. It's all pretty chill—way more indie rock than heavy metal—but occasionally it would extend past my own personal bedtime. Luckily, Geeta is on very good terms with her tenants and was totally willing to ask them to quiet down at night for my sake, which they did. I was grateful that they acted on my request in a considerate manner. I'm a trumpet player, so believe me, I am aware of the impact that practicing an instrument can have on other people.
So yeah, stay here! I bet you'll like it.
