This suite is great and Maren was wonderful. If every Air BnB place is like this I will never stay in a hotel again. Seriously.

I stayed with Maren mid-January for a conference downtown and the location was perfect. Maren's apartment is about two blocks from two different routes downtown and so I was able to easily get to the conference as well as back.

The bed in this room is amazingly comfortable. I slept like a baby, and usually in hotels I have to worst sleep. The area is also quiet and I had no trouble sleeping in until 10. The house is a little old so you can hear other people staying in it but I had no trouble getting to bed at a reasonable hour.

The kitchen in this place is also great and features a sizable fridge, some preparation ingredients, and a gas stove. I didn't use the kitchen a lot (I was only around for a few days) but I could reasonably see myself living there comfortably for a few weeks at a time.

The bathroom was perfect for one person but might be a little tight for two (you may want to take turns showering, for example) but was well organized and almost cozy, and not in the 'it's too small' kind of way. There's also lots of storage space so you can reasonably unpack and have place for your toiletries.

Maren herself was great and brought me some local beer and mandarin oranges as a welcome gift. It was a perfect gift when I arrived and I was extremely grateful. She was also understanding of my somewhat frazzled state when I arrived (not her fault, just some of the joys of travelling) and was kind enough to direct me to the bus and even provided me tickets!

The only downside of this suite, which wasn't even an issue for me, is that it doesn't have a TV or cable in the room. I don't really watch TV but if that's super important to you - be aware. Seriously though, what you're doing staying in the room and not exploring the neighborhood or enjoying one of the numerous food trucks, pubs, or restaurants nearby is beyond me.

Overall Maren and her lodgings made a great trip stellar.
