Vlad's apartment is a tasteful, vintage accommodation that harkens back to an earlier era with its period furnishings and decor, its woodwork built-in features with leaded glass and even framed old family photos adorning the end tables. This atmospheric quality is what drew me to book this place. The kitchen and bathroom are spacious and equipped with modern appliances; the pantry is well stocked with everything one needs. One of the two bedrooms features a banjo as a wall decoration. The two bedrooms on the second floor share the main bathroom, but there is also a third floor space where an additional guest or two could sleep. Vlad is A+ as a communicator. And when the outdoor temperature took a surprising turn, Vlad quickly fired up the furnace to make sure that we remained cozy inside. The apartment is near to the commercial district of Grand Avenue with its wide range of restaurant options include Afghan, Himalayan, Thai, in addition to the usual cuisines.
