Alison's place is exactly like the photos. It was very clean and uncluttered. There are 2 bedrooms, each with its own bath. And a common area, which is long and thin, with a trundle bed that functions as a sofa. There are some benches, but no additional seating (not really room for them).
I stayed there with my son's family of 4 (the kids are 4 and 7). Because there's not a lot of common area, it was a little tight for that many people, but we made it work. The children really liked the game tables in the garage one floor below.
We were visiting family, who lived nearby so the location worked out well for us. It seemed safe there. It's a 15-minute walk to the retail section of the Woodstock neighborhood, where you can find some good restaurants (Grand Central Market, Dick's Primal Burger, and Shoko Sushi), as well as a New Seasons and a Safeway.
I was a little surprised that Alison didn't provide Body Wash for the showers. Other than that, our visit was fine
