Julia is a true ambassador to the city. She made us feel welcome months before our stay. She helped us plan historic sites to see, gave us detailed instructions for public transportation in the area, and responded very quickly to any questions we had. When we arrived, we received the same extraordinary level of attentiveness, with Julia checking in to make sure we arrived safely and quickly answering any questions that came up for us (where to get vegetarian food, where to find extra sheets, where to watch the marathon, etc.). She even hooked us up with discounts on taxis and food delivery services! The apartment was exactly as pictured, and in a great location very close to public transportation.
