Don't hesitate--stay here! First of all, this space is adorable (lava lamp! 8-track! awesome mod decor!), and it's also absolutely spotlessly clean. Second of all, the neighborhood is the best. You're within walking distance of so, so many excellent bars, restaurants, and thrift stores. Alberta itself is a wonderful street, and N. Williams and N. Mississippi aren't too terribly far away (we walked back and forth and enjoyed getting to know the neighborhoods). You don't need a car, staying here; the #72 bus runs frequently down Alberta and will get you on your way to both the MAX train to the airport and to other parts of town, and the #6 and #8 are also in the neighborhood. Finally, Melissa thinks of everything and is a fantastic host. She provides detailed instructions and descriptions and is very quick to reply if there are any questions. This has been one of my very favorite AirBnB stays.
