I loved staying here. The front steps, the front door, the beautifully redone floors, the comfortable beds, the cool tiled shower, the spacious hall and easy kitchen, the pleasure of shotgun house living -- Ryan did a beautiful job renovating and left thoughtful touches throughout, from quality shampoo and toothpaste and lots of coffee pods for the coffeemaker to a box of New Orleans rice. I packed lightly because a washer and dryer was promised, but there was no washer & dryer (on the blink, apparently); wish I'd known that from the start. I ended up going back and forth to a funky laundermat five blocks away on Broad St. I walked everywhere without incident, including to the Whole Foods a mile away. If you stay here, don't miss Willie Mae's fried chicken and St. Ann's shrine in the next block and the Degas House on Esplanade five blocks away.
