This was a good choice and I recommend it. It's really, really clean, and so even though it's a basement it doesn't feel creepy. The location is great. It was very quiet but still close to so much. We had tons of options within a 4-5 block radius. Also, Lawrence was more than happy to offer us suggestions. The check-in was very easy and smooth and Lawrence was immediately responsive to all our requests. He had also stocked the kitchen with bottled water and beer for us, which I thought was so nice! He was very concerned that we have a good stay. The only couple of things I might say that I wish were different were that one, we couldn't control the heat ourselves and it made climate control a little challenging sometimes (we had to text or call Lawrence to change it for us), and two, the internet was kind of spotty (probably normal for a basement apartment). But neither of things were major issues and I would definitely stay there again. Thank you Lawrence for being such a lovely host!
