Melissa’s space, located in her basement, was a single room tastefully furnished with a queen bed, loveseat, desk, chairs, and kitchenette stocked with dishes, utensils, microwave, and small fridge/freezer. The full bathroom was small with limited counter space, but not uncomfortably cramped. Her place was spotlessly clean and stayed cool in the 100+ summer heat (with the help of a fan). The location, less than a block from Hawthorne Ave, was in a quiet, safe, and interesting neighborhood with five-minute walks to numerous restaurants, shops, and entertainment options on Hawthorne Ave (or ten-minute walks to Division St). An automatic keyless lock made the stay hassle- and worry-free. The Wifi also worked well (and a TV is available). Melissa was communicative, responsive, and friendly. One of the best hosts I've interacted with. I would definitely stay here again. Other perks: coffee maker/coffee, softer-than-a-hotel’s toilet paper, and the pillow-top mattress. Be aware that you are in a basement so you will hear people walking above you, and that the ceilings are low (if you are 6’4”, you’re likely to bump your head in some areas). Thanks, Melissa, for your hospitality!
