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 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!

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.
