We are a group of 3 women who have been coming to the city for 16 years. We very much enjoyed Akon’s place. He responded quickly every time I contacted him, which I appreciate in a host. The apartment was very comfortable, we didn’t cook, but after visiting the Amish Market nearby, i briefly considered it. The noise from the front bedroom didn’t really bother me, but there are earplugs for that. Police officers on horses came by every morning, that was a sound we loved! The location is just what we were looking for. A short walk to all the places we usually visit. Many restaurants, bars and markets to choose from. We are hoping to stay here again next year.
