Patty's place is great overall. It's a basement apartment, so expect it to be dark-ish even during sunny days. But, the location is great, the neighborhood delightful, and the private entrance was convenient and hassle-free. Our only gripe is that we stayed here 12 months ago, and the kitchen and bathroom surfaces had signs warning us that the black stain used might transfer to things left on them when wet, but that it would be fixed soon. So, it was disheartening to return a year later, to find the same counters and same warnings. There's no other surface space in the bathroom, so it's hard to use the space. We mentioned this, and we told they were being fixed next week, which seems like unlikely timing. There was also a strong-ish musty smell for most of our stay.
