This was my first AirBnB experience! I made our reservation last minute through instant book, and I am SO thankful for that feature! Luckily, it wasn't an inconvenience to our hosts, Ruby & Rafael, who were both welcoming to my boyfriend and I. We all got along so well, making the experience better than I could've ever expected! We were fortunate enough to have the second level to ourselves (there are two rooms available upstairs to AirBnB guests, with a shared bathroom). It never felt like we were invading our hosts' space, and they were respectful of "our" space while we were there. Toiletries were provided in the bathroom, and everything was clean and tidy. Oh, and their two cats are friendly and adorable! The only thing a potential guest might want to take into account is that the house is in the suburbs, about 20 minutes from campus and downtown. That wasn't a problem for us because we had a car (and being from LA, where we have to drive everywhere, we're used to it), but without one, I imagine a person would be a bit stuck.
