Stayed in various Airbnbs around the world, but my stay at Ish's must be among my favorites! Location is really convenient (especially for going to east downtown), and the suburban neighborhood felt friendly. I was able to walk around / scooter to everywhere I needed. The area is great too (for restaurants, cafes, tacos, walking to the river, etc.)!
Ish's home has a quiet, cozy, and relaxing ambiance -- it felt just like staying at friend's house -- with lots of personal little touches of art and decor, curious bits and bobs collected from around the world. The guest bedroom / bathroom area is sectioned off in a hall from the other living spaces / Ish's room, so it feels relatively private. The room is simple but clean, spacious, and super comfy! I slept very comfortably on the bed. (There's no desk / chair inside the room, but you could probably work out in the dining area if you wanted to.) The bathroom is clean, with nice amenities like a hair dryer and even hair straightener. I even used the washer / dryer, which were located in the room adjacent to the guest room -- super convenient. The kitchen was also extremely clean and well-equipped for cooking / tea / coffee needs. The thermostat always kept the house relatively cool and comfortable, even when it was warmer outside.
Ish herself was super accommodating, and chatting with her on the first night, I instantly felt welcome. When I asked for bug spray, she immediately lent me some bug repellent / itch relief cream. She's a very personable and lovely person -- someone who seems like she'd have a lot of stories to tell. Communication throughout was great too. Thank you so much!
