Before we even arrived, Briena sent a video showing how to access the space. It was very thoughtful & took any stress of getting in away. The space is very clean & the bed was very comfortable. She’s an artist & I loved seeing her artwork in the room. She left a detailed manual of procedures, info about the place, & recommendations around the city. She also included a selection of coffees, teas, a variety of bathroom items you could’ve forgotten, etc. I thought she did a great job of including those things for guests and I saw it as the mark of a thoughtful host.
Her and her boyfriend are very friendly and helpful! We talked outside (because of covid) for awhile and they were able to give us helpful information as well as just have some good conversation.
Their dog, Drummer is sweet. He’ll bark once or twice to let you know this is his property, but then come up to you in a very friendly manner.
I would definitely recommend staying here. It’s close to downtown & other neighborhoods south of downtown. The neighborhood is quiet in the evening and I felt very safe.
