The place is just as described and pictured. It's close to downtown for eats and shopping, and Yale and all that's around it. It was very comfortable, well appointed, the beds were great, and it was just plain nice!@\

Awesome
The place was breath taking clean welcoming. The host was awesome he communicated with me very well no matter what time I reach out he was there to help, for example my husband is in a wheelchair and we rented a lift and they were running late to pick it up and the host was very helpful so I can make it to the airport. I will be definitely going to request this place again. Thanks so much again.
