Alex's place is beyond perfect. He's a brilliant host. His place is warm and well appointed. There are so many over and above touches - the bed is comfy, clean and beautiful, the bathroom floor is heated, the towels are luxurious, the bath and shower are superb. The exposed brick wall with windows facing a tiled roof made me feel like I was tucked into the top of a castle. Check in and check out as well as entry was always easy. I always felt safe, comfortable and welcome. The neighborhood is great, I especially liked The Upper Cup Cafe, just one block away and The Lifestyle Cafe, a vegan soul food restaurant about 4 blocks down the street. There was another vegan spot, 4th & State, about 15 minutes walk. There's lots of cool stuff right in this neighborhood. My favorite part of this stay was the host, Alex. He is kind, super smart and very intuitive. I felt like I was with friends, everyone I met here was inspiring and intelligent. I had the best possible experience in Ohio and I'm glad I wasn't alone. This stay made what could have been a challenging visit into smooth sailing. I am new to shared home airbnb stays and I'm so glad I tried it, this was a positive experience on every level.
