Pros- conveniently located within 1 block of a coffee shop/bakery (biscuits and gravy!), pizzeria and brewery, Halloween candy in the cupboard!!, excellent communication and flexibility with hostess. Clean and comfy sleeping spaces.
Not really cons, but something to consider- turn on the outdoor light if you plan to come in after dark, the entry way is very dark at night! This is a downstairs apartment so occasionally you do hear footsteps from above. This was not bothersome to us in the least, but if you don't like to hear other people a basement apartment may not be the right choice.
Very positive experience with very friendly hosts!
