Daniel gave great instructions via Airbnb messaging and was super quick at responding if I had any questions. The space is clean and modern. It doesn't looked lived in and definitely has a more hotel feeling to it, but with a full fridge/freezer and stove. You could cook if you wanted, as there are pots and pans, but no other essentials ie: salt, pepper, oil etc. I came to enjoy the city and eat out, so that wasn't a thing for me. There were also dishes, glassware, and some essential kitchen tools... most importantly to me, a bottle opener/corkscrew.
He also provides coffee and hot cocoa with a Keurig machine. I didn't see any cream or sugar, at least none that I noticed (just a heads up if you need it). He also provided fresh towels, shampoo, conditioner and body wash. There's WiFi and television.
Everything was very well kept, modern and tidy. I could tell the apartment had been cleaned before we arrived. The linens and towels were fresh. I didn't ever feel I was intruding on someone's space or any sense of confrontation. The entrance is private and is part of an apartment/studio space building on the ground level. I will say the walls are pretty thin, not that that's anyone's fault, but I could hear someone giving guitar lessons in the bathroom, haha! Nobody was out of line late at night though. The location was really nice. It was super easy to take the 14 bus on Hawthorne, use the Nike Bikes (which are right around the block), or just walk to stuff.
Overall I highly recommend staying here! The neighborhood is beautiful!
Thanks, Daniel!!
