Laura and her husband were friendly, welcoming hosts. Laura happily met us to let us in for our later-than-planned arrival and providing a brief tour of the clean, cozy, comfortable space. Because we arrived at night, we were grateful she provided us with some staple food for the next morning - bagels and eggs and some snacks - and the kitchen had staple pantry items in stock. The area and apartment were quiet, save for the occasional scramble of the cute dogs that live upstairs - which we mainly heard because we spent a couple of the days inside. Any questions or concerns we had were quickly and graciously addressed. The only down side was that our cell phone reception was pretty spotty inside the apartment (probably walls made of great material, which is why pretty quiet). We would definitely stay again.
