First of all, this unit had the two most important things I want in an Airbnb: 1) a filtered water pitcher - the planet is dying, y’all, and buying bottles kills my soul; and 2) heavy curtains on every window. I don’t know why so many listings have some sheer nonsense as their *only* window covering option, but I personally like to sleep in while on vacation. Privacy is very cool, too.
Steve is a lovely host. He was very responsive and congenial, and I didn’t hear from him otherwise. The space is spotlessly clean and included some thoughtful treats upon arrival. Checking in and out was a breeze. The bed was comfortable. The location is ideal - convenient to a number of bus lines and adjacent to a number of happening spots. Street parking should be easy if you have a car.
Femmes beware: there is no real primping area that makes sense. The bathroom mirror is very high; and if you’re a shortly like me, you’ll only see half your face. There is a large mirror next to the bed (in case you like to watch yourself sleep, etc.), but the lighting is no good; and to see your entire outfit, you’ll have to stand on the bed. If you bring your own mirror, the kitchen table would work.
If you’re a light sleeper, you may wish to bring earplugs, as there is work being done on the lot next door, and they start somewhat early. (I did happen to being said earplugs, so it wasn’t a problem.)
Overall, this was a comfortable respite, and I would be happy to stay here again.
