We chose Josh' place because it was near a park (we brought our miniature poodle) and there was parking on the street. Because it was a really hot summer, it was great to have a basement apartment that did not heat up during the day, the drawback of course is very little sunlight. Washer/dryer looked completely new and were easy to use, supplies were on hand. There was cold Brita water in the fridge when we arrived, and the fact that there was a home gym we could use made this a great place to stay.
