PLEASE READ CAREFULLY BEFORE BOOKING (FOR PARKING SEE FAQS BELOW):
Our place is not for everyone and that's just fine. We're travelers too, and because of this, do our best to offer the type of apartment we like to stay in -low key, affordable, and part of a friendly, colorful community. The building is older, and the apartment has its quirks but it is clean, in a safe location, and a 3 minute walk from supermarkets, cafes, international restos and bars – all in the middle of a lively underground arts scene.
We know how difficult it can be to find a place to stay with your pet, and as animal lovers, we're happy to offer a fully-equipped comfortable home with a private patio, where you and your 4-legged family members can enjoy the city stress-free.
But, before you book, here things to consider:
This is is a pet friendly travel spot so if you're allergic to cats and dogs it's NOT the place for you. Don't book, you won't like it here!!
FAQs
Are there any stairs?
The apartment is locate 5 steps below street level.
Can I bring my well-behaved pet?
Yes, pets are welcome! Please note that this is a pet-friendly apartment, I receive guests with dogs, and sometimes cats, fairly frequently. I always use covers on all the furniture and make sure to vacuum and treat the apartment with probiotic anti-dander sprays after those guests leave but if you are allergic to dander I suggest choosing another place. If you're bringing your pet please make sure to clean up after them because I charge from the security deposit for pet messes or damage.
