Alisa was a super sweet hostess! Very easy to coordinate with and was a delight to speak to. She accommodated us last minute when our other accommodations fell through. She's a newer host and is definitely doing a great job. The place is cute and rustic and she's friendly and accommodating. The value is GREAT. You get two bedrooms for the price (we only used one), and all of the basics are included and even Netflix if you want to stay in. Cute minimal artisan decor and lots of succulents everywhere so the place feels alive, even in the dead of winter! Temperature was perfect throughout the house and no drafts. The rooms are all separated and do not share walls so that is nice too. Oh and parking was always within a block.
Sidenotes: yes, the bathroom is small like other guests note. Wasn't a big deal to us, and it's not like she can help that anyways, and she had all the necessities regardless of the bathroom size. To no fault of Alisa's, her next door neighbors apparently have been having parties pretty often (so they said), and they had a rager our last night there, and kept ringing the wrong buzzer (hers) and slamming into the walls and door. I had to ask them multiple times to quiet down up until 1:30am, each time they did but it would rear back up. The walls are paper thin between the apartments so I could hear every word they said in retaliation. However, I think they and/or Alisa will correct this situation though. Alisa was very helpful through text in giving me permission to talk to them. Only small inaccuracy in the listing was her being "rarely home", it might be a little misleading... we assumed it meant she wasn't really there and we would have the place to ourselves more often than we did. But seriously it wasn't a big deal! She's in and out and *super* friendly and her room is private too, so it was never inconvenient, but just don't be like us and assume you have as much alone time in the apartment as it sounds. :) Maybe "in and out" would be more accurate. Alisa was always SO pleasant and smiling and helpful so it was nice regardless! We enjoyed our stay and for the value, it was GREAT. I definitely recommend staying here!!!
