Deirdre is an amazing host. She is very very responsive and attentive to her guest's needs. Even though she was in California during our stay she was in constant communication with us. Her place is as described. It is comfortable and clean. It is a great value. We would recommend it highly for people who like urban settings and old neighborhoods with rich and varied history. Just one thing to keep in mind that it is on 3rd floor and there are steps to climb to get to the room.
