Kip was a very responsive host and eager to help with anything we asked. The location was good -- easy to get everywhere driving; we didn't take any public transportation, so we can't speak to that.
The description in the listing is accurate in that you can definitely hear the kiddos and dog in the apartment but Kip provides earplugs for those who are sensitive and if you, like us, have kids and a dog then it is nothing outside the ordinary. The apartment was a bit chilly but there are individual wall heaters in the bedrooms that made it perfectly fine. Our daughter very much appreciated having access to the Legos; and we appreciated that a pack n' play and sheet were available for our infant son. The bathroom is lovely and clean; but the shower is on the small side, so could be uncomfortable for someone who is larger.
