Great Hostess, but loudness house we’ve stayed at..
Great great hostess! Loved the detail pictures for easy check in. House was big, would have loved a little more setting in living room (only had 3 seats.) Welcome basket in kitchen with drinks in fridge was a very thoughtful touch. The only draw back (which is out of everyone’s hands) is the city noise outside. Between the train out back, the bus stop right out front, and the busy road out side, the noise was why louder than what we expected. This house was honestly the loudest house we have ever stayed in!! (There is no sugar coating the noise level.) The hostess really did earn a 5 star review, however I just wanted to be completely honest on the noise level for those who might be sensitive to it.

Great Super Host
Gladys and her daughter were more than accommodating and responded to and addressed our every need. The apartment was clean and comfortable….the floors gleamed and the couch y chair in the LV were soooo cozy. Our only complaints were the noise level both day and night, as well as the lack of central air. Many of the rooms were cooled by portable units which were very loud so it was difficult to watch television. The other aspect which made staying there difficult was the steep stairs. If Gladys and Dana hadn’t been there to help us navigate the stairs, we could never have managed our suitcases alone. Apart from these things, we had an enjoyable time.

Very clean place. We had some problems with the wifi but was not a big deal. If you're looking for a quiet, secluded spot this isn't it, we knew that going in though. For the price it was great, could use a little more living room furniture though. Thanks.

Gracious Hospitality!
I was impressed with the care that was taken to update this apartment in an older building. The floors and wood door and window frames were beautiful. The apartment is very large, rooms are very spacious. A little more seating in the living room would be helpful (there is only seating for 3). The owners supplied everything we needed. They even had a variety of drinks in the refrigerator and a large basket of a variety of snacks on the counter! Communication was great!!! The only thing that was a drawback for me was the city noise (street and trains), but I live in the country with very little noise.
