Great garden-level self-contained 1 bedroom apartment in the basement of a single family home. Quiet and safe residential neighborhood. Very clean, well-kept, and thoughtfully-furnished.
Would be better if one had own transportation because public transportation, while available and adequate, is somewhat limited compared to other major metropolitan cities in the northeast / mid-Atlantic region.
No traffic noise audible from the apartment at all, but on one of the two nights that I was there, i could hear airplanes flying overhead from about 7 a.m. (which Deborah had told me was a possibility). The floorboard above the apartment also creaks when someone is walking on it. Water pressure from the shower is somewhat low.
I would give this a 4.5-star rating (the website does not allow for 1/2-star) and highly recommend this AirBNB for anyone who is visiting the area. Deborah was a very considerate host and very easy to communicate with.
