The building was very quiet and I felt very safe. It was well appointed including the host leaving a bottle of pasta sauce and pasta so I wouldn't have to run to the grocery store immediately. The couch was extra comfortable, the apartment spacious enough for my needs. Very pet friendly and a perfect neighborhood for walking dogs at any time of day or night.
Superb…
Truly exceeded all expectations.
Attention to detail very obvious in every aspect.
Clean, comfortable, cheerful design touches everywhere you look.
Very thankful for the light breakfast and coffee as it was a late arrival and everything was closed, but boy do the quaint shops, the bakeries, and the restaurants come alive during the day.
*be sure to check reservation requirements…
Definitely recommend…you won’t be disappointed….as I said…it’s all in the details.
Thank you for such a wonderful experience.
