William & Maria's place is exactly what is pictured on Airbnb, clean, airy, modern, new, nice; But more than that, there are 3 things that really stand-out: #1, the amenities in the apartment (the towels, the appliances, the utensils, the bedsheets, the furniture) are exactly what you would have in your own lovely house, not at all substandard amenities for their guests. It was wonderful being able to use nice quality utensils and pots and towels, the kind that one would buy for themselves in their own home. I really appreciate that, because it made me happy and comfortable. William & Maria treat their guests like one of their family, it's really nice. #2, Maria (William was away on a business trip) is extremely hardworking and communicative. She notified me immediately of any changes in our living situation, helped me get the washer going, was always at the apartment when a guest left, straightening it out a little bit, in addition to having a house cleaner there, helpful in every way. Maria is lovely. #3) The location of the house is ideal, right on Lake Harriet, about 2 "blocks" away from the bandshell and the boat dock where my son was taking sailing lessons, within a 5-minute walk of all the restaurants at Lake Harriet. We walked everywhere. Lake Harriet is gorgeous, the apartment is extremely clean & beautiful, we couldn't ask for a better host/place.
