I’m glad you enjoyed your stay. I meant to rate you 5 stars aim house rules just like I gave u 5 stars for the other items. Sorry for the mistake. Hope to see u back at STAY 5 MINUTES AWAY !
The host was great and let us check in super early since we arrived in the morning! She also sent a detailed instruction sheet. The location, although tucked behind a big medical building where Google Maps couldn’t quite find, was super close to piedmont ave so we could walk for food/shops and it felt safe. The house is quirky but was clean and had everything we needed for our short stay!
Everything was wonderful and as advertised…apart from a bit of broken glass found in a remote area of the apartment. After reaching out via text, our host graciously offered to come and clean it for us!
The apartment was quite spacious and comfortable. It's really a complete apartment not just a studio space. The patio is modest but would be nice in a warmer season. (My visit was January.) The kitchen was well-equipped with cookware, appliances, silverware, plates etc etc. (although I used only the cups & coffee maker). The host was immediately available by text when I had a question about the access directions.
Very good location if you a visiting the Piedmont area. Airy, light and comfortable. Feels very secure and safe.Listing says Laundry, but it is not included it is a pay laundry. Doesn't have a lot of dishes, glasses or utensil. It is an older property, so the floors are not level.
