When we say clean, we mean CLEAN. No curling your toes up in a shower that's gross. No sliding to the middle of the bed on a bad mattress, or sleeping under stained bedding. No washing clothes in a rusted machine. No dark windowless basement rooms. This place is brand NEW clean. There's a new front loading washer/dryer, dishwasher, and stove. The shower is spotless. The bed is comfortable. The whole apartment is light and airy and spacious. There's plenty of off street parking and the street is quiet and off the beaten track. Of course there's AC -- that actually works. But best of all? The hosts are so responsive and caring, so attentive, and even though they aren't on site, we felt like they were literally on the other end of the phone line. We only had to call once for an ironing board and it was provided almost immediately. This is a second floor apartment but the (indoor) steps are well lighted and safe. Honestly, we don't want to give this place away; we want it to be there for us when we return! But you know what it's like when you find a good thing -- you just HAVE to share! Enjoy!
