This was a great place to stay! It was very cozy but felt nice and spacious for one to two people. They took a lot of time to remodel this area to make it feel just like a small apartment. It was a very private spot and we didn't have any unannounced encounters with hosts (I know that can make some people feel weird, it most certainly does with us).
The location was nicely away from the noise and city but only took us about 10 minutes to get to the hot spots downtown. Alice, was a very good host who was available to respond within minutes, offered any assistance we needed, and never overstepped personal space or boundaries. There is a great little area in the area with a cool beer bar, coffee spot, and tavern too!
Pros: quiet, cozy, very clean, fits description, wonderful host, and plenty of amenities you don't always see at places even pricier.
Cons: the only few gripes are easy fixes that we have told the host personally and in no way will deter us for another stay. We just feel it's always best to let all others know too. The front entrance was a glass window so anyone could easily peak in and look inside the entire living room so that made us a feel a little uneasy but we made it work. Also, the window above the couch was easy to see through and let a lot of light in during the morning so we did suggest a darker curtain to make things much more private. Lastly, it is a house above so you can hear a lot of walking but not enough to where it made us unhappy with our stay.
Random suggestion: Ubers are VERY hard to find during weekday evenings or nights and they canceled a lot finding our location but we did make it work. I suggest driving downtown on weekdays. The bed was also a spring so it really started to hurt my back --- it seems like it may be best to swap that out soon for a newer one but again, that didn't stop us from leaving 5 stars.
Alice was wonderful and this place was a very great stay for a great price. We look forward to visiting again soon!
