Great little MIL condo—really, I don’t usually ever book basement units or places that have shared walls etc, but you wouldn’t really know it here. Yes, you could hear a tiny bit of noise from above but only very occasionally, and the way the entrances are set up, you do truly have privacy—especially important for me because I have two dogs and don’t want the dogs to freak out from noise from elsewhere, or for my dogs to cause noise to bother others. Agree that the street is busy and unwalkable, we just drove even to take the dogs on their walks and it’s a quick drive everywhere. The living/sleeping space worked just fine including having two of us working from home—we just put the kids and dogs in the living room and took meetings from the bedrooms. The patio was just lovely—and the view from there and the bedroom windows is beautiful. Appreciated the bottle of wine at check-in. Worked great for us!
