We had a great 12 night stay at Elie's while visiting family nearby. Yes, it is a lower level apartment, but he has made the space incredibly pleasant. Elie really has a knack for getting the details right to make your stay excellent. We were here during a hot summer spell, and the AC kept the place very pleasant.
The bed was very comfortable, and we appreciated the white noise machine and the fan. We slept incredibly well every night. The bedroom is small, but definitely adequate.
The bathroom is spacious--the shower is great, plenty of hot water, spectacular water pressure and the towels are large, fluffy, and absorbent. (Even in such hot weather, we used the towel warmer, to ensure that the thick heavy towels dried overnight.)
The kitchen had everything we needed, and is nicely furnished. We appreciated that coffee, tea, sugar, creamer, and granola were available (and that would be even more a plus for folks just staying a couple of nights.) The full sized fridge/freezer was useful for us for our longer than average stay.
Elie is a very sweet, kind fellow, and we enjoyed our conversations with him. We have family in the area, and we would be delighted to stay at Elie's place again on our next visit.
