Tara is the host you want. On Airbnb, where the host makes difference, you know you're in good hands here.
We are from Utah with 2 kids and stayed for 4 nights at Tara's home. We found busses, restaurants, metro, all walkable and we were quite comfortable in the neighborhood.
The Air-conditioning was crucial during the heat of August during our visit, and worked perfectly.
Stay here.
