We had a great time. The decor is funky, the kitchen has lots of welcoming touches (we tried cola flavored water :) and there are a lot of places to check out-like Iranian food and vegan ice cream :) a short walk away. My husband noted the nice garden our hosts are growing outside, too and when he went out for coffee in the morning he came back all excited that he got to see a man riding a unicycle down the street! Check in/out was super easy, too. Thanks!!!!! And ps room darkening curtains were much appreciated!
