I stay in a lot of high-end business hotels (Hyatt, Hilton, etc.,) and what I like about them is that everything is spotlessly clean and all my needs are anticipated and addressed in advance.
Staying at Candace's place was like that. Everything in Candace's house -- including the house itself -- felt brand new and spotlessly clean.
I slept on a comfortable bed with fresh linens, ate breakfasts of whole grain French bread with fancy butter and fancier preserves, and bathed in a sparkling clean bathroom.
The wi-fi was good, the hi-def TV delivered a million channels, there was shampoo and conditioner, she lent me an umbrella, etc., etc.
The location is right in Huron Villlage, one block from Formaggio Kitchen. I walked to Harvard Square and to Fresh Pond. Although Huron Ave. can be busy, the room was in the rear of the house, so I heard no traffic noise.
Candace is a thoughtful, interesting person. I am a professor and she is a retired educator, and we had lots to talk about.
Overall this was a perfect AirBnB experience.
Thank you, Candace!
