Serenity is a fantastic host. She’s thoughtful, communicative, and gave clear instructions. The studio is very safe and secure, and the location can’t be beat. It’s less than a minute walk to a C line station, above a cute cafe, and there are lots of great restaurants and bars in a short walking distance. The studio was clean and the description was accurate. The rooftop is super cute. The AC was very nice to have.
It’s a 3rd floor walk up with very skinny stairways and uneven steps. The studio is very tiny and is bare bones. There’s no wifi (as advertised). It could use some TLC. The bathroom door doesn’t lock (and there’s no fan in there). The flooring is peeling a bit, there was some discoloration on the sheets and the freezer is iced over. The tile in the shower is a little gross and needs to be replaced.
On one of our 4 nights, there was a massive party next door with blasting music until 4am. This might have been a once in a blue moon occurrence, but I can’t be sure.
Overall, great location, excellent host, but in my opinion, too cramped for a couple to stay for 4 nights.
