10/10 Excellent

"Very clean and inviting, and nicely decorated. Large TVs that can stream anything.The only slight cons would be the parking, because the provided garage isn’t very wide and the only other parking is along the street (however the host does warn of this, so it’s just something to note before booking) Overall a very nice place to stay, it’s nearby to everything and it’s easy to get a Lyft or uber to any event you might be attending."
