I throughly enjoyed my time staying with Kari and Paul.
Their place is a basement apartment - complete with a laundry room, furnished kitchen, living room, full bath, and two bedrooms.
There is high-speed internet, parking, plenty of towels and other amenities including a coffee maker - with coffee grounds provided in the fridge. There is also a firewood grill outside I used quite often.
I stayed there while going to a school on the Navy base. The rent was cheaper than a hotel and the kitchen meant that I drastically cut down on my food costs. The place was perfect for such an occasion.
Kari and Paul are an adorable retired couple who live an eccentric lifestyle. They live upstairs. The basement is where their sons stay if they are in town.
They are great hosts. Paul showed me how to use his grill and Kari showed me how to steam spinach. They invited me to a dinner party - which meant that I, a complete stranger, was now invited to meet their friends for years. I had a great time at the party.
There was no A/C which wasn’t a problem. The basement, though a furnished, tiled, painted, and having wooden walls in some places is still underground and formed by cement. In the heat of summer the temperature in the room never got above probably around 65-70 degrees.
I would highly recommend staying there to anyone in the future.
