Holly was a top-notch host. She was very patient, generous, and willing to help. I definitely think that staying with Holly is a good choice per se; however, I would advise extreme caution in the neighborhood. My friends warned me about Brownsville when I told them that I was staying there, and there was shooting nearby, although news reports say that this was a rare occurrence in recent times.
Again, Holly was very pleasant, and the space itself was very self-sufficient. If I were taking only the house/listing into consideration, then I would definitely suggest that you consider this.
