Jennifer was extremely helpful! Based on her recommendations we tried a couple of restaurants within walking distance. It was great to have free parking and we really utilized public transit. This was very much a no frills place, but clean and had a nice shower. Really had everything we needed for our purposes.

My two teen daughters and I loved this apartment. Small, yet spacious, clean, organized, tastefully/colorfully decorated and believe it or not, very bright for the basement! Fully loaded kitchen with dishes, cutlery, and new appliances. Loved being able to make our ownbreakfast.

We had a wonderful stay in this adorable apartment! While everything was as described and made for a great experience, the real stand-out of this property is the host - excellent communication, and most responses were received only a few minutes after my messages were sent. The host also provided a comprehensive and super-helpful visitor guide that really helped us orient to the neighborhood and the city. I would definitely recommend this property!
