The room and the overall home was wonderful. It was exactly as shown in the pictures: clean, well appointed, and cheerful. Small touches like a dish of mints in the bedroom, a complementary beer in the fridge, maps of the area, access to an extra blanket in the closet, or borrowed umbrella and hair dryer in the room made us feel welcome.

The bed was comfortable; firm and supportive, but not hard. As a light sleeper who is sensitive to noise, I was a little nervous about the proximity of the freeway across the street. However, it was incredibly quiet in the home. I forgot about the freeway until I stepped outside.

The neighborhood is quirky and transitional. We walked all over and never felt unsafe. The main street, Mississippi, is just two short blocks away. It has several great bars, shops and restaurants to enjoy. The yellow MAX light rail line is a 5 minute walk and the #4 bus line is a 2 minute walk. Both lines will take you into downtown within about 20 minutes.
