The studio looks exactly as advertised. It was clean and the hosts added small touches that made it homey. It is a small apartment so I wouldn't recommend more than 2 guests. The only downside is that the walls are thin so I felt like I had to tip toe around. Its minutes from downtown, easily accessible, and affordable. I didn't get to meet Kim and Carl, as I was gone for most of the days and just came back late at night but they seem friendly :)
