My wife and I spent two nights at Sara's at the beginning of a 17 day road trip from California to Canada and back. The apartment was exactly as described and depicted in the listing.
At the risk of repeating other travelers' descriptions, there are four separate rooms in the apartment: kitchen, living/reading room, large bedroom and 3/4 bathroom.
The kitchen is well equipped and Sara goes further providing granola, coffee, honey and other useful items. Any cooking would have to be done on a two-burner hotplate. We stuck to the water boiler, French Press and microwave.
Modern washer and dryer were great. The queen bed mattress is a bit too firm for me but I'm 63 and fussier than I used to be. Ten years ago it would have been fine. The daybed was softer and worked well for me.Towels were plentiful and of good quality.
Other features we appreciated were off-street parking in the driveway, a quiet neighborhood within 10 minutes of downtown and the courtyard garden outside our door.
We appreciated Sara's flexibility when we arrived later than originally planned. She was quick to respond to questions and communicated clearly. Sara is an outstanding host, both welcoming and professional and genuinely interested in making sure travelers have a positive experience. This will be our first choice for future visits to Salem.
