We had a great time staying at Katrin's place! Katrin and Al were very friendly and accomodating and their lovely daughter even babysat for our four-year-old daughter! The apartment and the area are beautiful, the neighbors are very friendly, and you can easily walk to the red line, to great restaurants, bars, supermarket, etc. If you do travel with kids and are planning on cooking, take into consideration that the kitchen is basic. Laundry room is available in the basement for extra cost. We highly recommend staying in Katrin's apartment and would definitely come back should we be in the area!
