The Place:
Cute basement apartment just down some stairs from the ground level and is very cutely decorated. The full kitchen was really nice for cooking. Bed is comfy, and so is the futon. The bath tub is nice for soaking away the chilly winter weather. There are two little heaters in the walls - don't let the size fool you, they'll warm the place up right away!
Location:
Nice central location on a quiet street - cute park right across. Neighborhood feels very safe. It is easy to walk to the Alberta neighborhood to the north, a cute shopping center/restaurant area to the south, and is close to bus/transit on MLK. Parking was not a problem.
Host:
Naomi was super friendly and responsive, and had some great recommendations for the neighborhood. Would stay here again!
