I loved my stay with Kate and Andy. Their place is well located on a quiet neighborhood street with easy access to running trails, parks, and restaurants. It felt very safe and secure to me as a woman traveling alone. Parking on the street using the complimentary parking pass was a breeze -- I never experienced a shortage of parking right in front of their place.

Kate was very friendly and efficient with the walk through. She showed me where to find everything and then I had complete privacy for the duration of my trip, although she was just a quick call/text away if I needed anything.

The unit is just as pictured, if not better. Very comfortable, full of amenities and little extra personal touches, very tastefully upgraded, creatively decorated, and exceptionally clean. You can tell that this unit is a labor of love and I dug their eclectic art as well as the mosaic tile in the bathroom. There were even fresh flowers in the kitchen, bedroom and bathroom upon my arrival. It's the little things!

The bed was comfortable from the mattress to the selection of pillows and linens. The hair dryer provided in the bathroom worked really well, which is one of the biggest issues I encounter with most hotels. The kitchen is well stocked with glasses, dishes, and cooking tools. The dish of Lindt chocolates and gourmet crackers were the perfect thing to take the edge off after a day of travel.

One thing to note: the large fridge was non-operational (unplugged?) during my visit. It sounds like they really only use it for longer stays and during shorter stays they keep it unplugged for energy efficiency. This wasn't a problem for me at all, as they provide a medium sized fridge for shorter stays and it was even stocked with complimentary beer, fancy soda, Greek yogurt and a little bit of fruit and milk. I only mention the fridge at all for guests who are dependent on iced beverages or who plan on needing a lot of fridge space for some reason, as the smaller fridge unit doesn't make ice and won't accommodate more than a couple of days worth of groceries. Just indicate that you'll need it in advance so that it can be ready to go upon your arrival.
