A brick 3-story walkup former law building turned rooming-house-style airbnb with IKEA styled fairly recent reno in lightly gentrified edge of German Village on a main cut-through street in a mixed-zone fast-food, empty and old-business storefront stretch (McDonalds across street, old funeral home down the block). Backs to quiet industrial zone (vintage Lace Dry Cleaners, indie radio station...). Nice large shared spacious lobby/LR and dining room with original details and generous coffee, CLIF bars, and black and green teas, huge vintage marble meeting table and leather rolling chairs and floor to ceiling windows. A firmly 20 to 30- something clientele and a bit of a dorm vibe on the two airbnb floors, try for the second floor to haver the bigger of the shared baths. The main drag traffic is not too noisy. Skip the Starbucks and walk a third mile to Jennings Java roasters (no food but great coffee) or head to Fox in the Snow or Stauf's.
