Staying at Derek's place has set the bar incredibly high for future Airbnb experiences. I booked while on the road, and not only was he quick to respond, he let me arrive an hour earlier than check-in, which was such relief because I'd been traveling all day.

The space itself is beautiful, spacious, and clean. And it's great if you want to live like a local! Restaurants, coffee houses, and groceries are all within a few blocks. I'm wishing I could make this my permanent residence!
