Lovely and comfortable accommodations for our party of three. The home is conveniently located for a short ride to downtown and nice for daytime walking or running.
The area is obviously in the progress of revitalization with many homes updated and maintained while others have yet to be tackled. My mother, a young 87 year old, and I very much enjoyed walking the area during the day. We felt quite safe and found the homes, trees, yards, and people quite interesting and entertaining. Many neighbors were out and about and all were very friendly. The residents seem to be young and energetic as is typical of an area being revitalized. If I were younger, I’d consider living here.
The apartment is creatively appointed and well done. Money was spent on important things like bedding and bathrooms and less on seating and conversation areas. The “kitchen,” as advertised, is more of a wet bar and coffee station with a toaster, microwave, and small frig, which was perfect for us. even though this is a daylight basement apartment, it does not feel like it is. (Love the ingenious lighted faux windows.)
It did not seem damp and the temperature was good. There are several dehumidifiers and air conditioners/heaters that pop on and off to maintain the air quality. For this reason, I would not recommend these accommodations for light sleepers.
The hosts made themselves readily available through messaging and I felt, had we needed more attention, they would have provided it.
I do recommend this apartment and would stay here again. Thank you for a lovely weekend.

I do have a few friendly suggestions for the hosts to consider during their next capital infusion. The front bedroom needs seating and somewhere to place another suitcase and personal items by the french doors. We would have enjoyed some comfortable seating outside the french doors. Though space is obviously at a premium, a couple of additional chairs are needed in the din to accommodate 4 guests.
Well done and good luck in the future.
