The host contacted us by phone a few days before our arrival to warn us that he will be out of town, but a friend will meet us. We appreciated this call and found the host to be very nice. The friend was on time at our arrival, which was great! The apartment was very clean when we arrived. It is a nice basic apartment with everything that is needed for a stay where you do not spend all the time in it (for example, you go to New York City during the day and stay in the apartment during the evening and night). The beds were very comfortable with good quality sheets : this was very welcomed after busy days visiting and walking. We had a car and it is possible to find free parking in the streets in the area.
I would recommend this apartment anytime!
