Cynthia and Jim's place is pretty much exactly as described. It's very homey and comfortable and has all the basic amenities and then some (banana bread). The location was perfect for us as our friends were just down the block, and in general the location gets you to many places around town in just minutes. The dogs we also loved interacting with and while it was not often, they are super friendly and beyond adorable. Cynthia and Jim were super friendly and welcoming and I would recommend their place for anyone looking for a low key, quiet place for a really reasonable rate.
