A perfect experience in a beautiful place owned by a truly delightful host.
We just rented the 3D Visual unit for a week and were truly delighted with our experience. The unit is even better in person than it seems in the listing, as our Host Molly’s care and attention to every little detail made for a simply perfect guest experience. She was an ideal host, fully and quickly responsive to any and all concerns or needs we had during our stay, going above and beyond the call of duty in every interaction.
I’d unreservedly recommend this unit for any couple or single person wishing to enjoy a pleasant stay in a fully updated, tastefully decorated and well equipped apartment, in a great location that’s just 20 minutes from downtown via streetcar. I’ve rented many vacation rentals over the years, but have never had a host who treated their guests as well as Molly treated us. She was generous with things like supplies, personally warm and incredibly responsive to any and all inquiries or requests made of her during our stay.
We’re quite particular about where we vacation and on all fronts, this place never disappointed and always delighted us at every moment of our stay. We also found our host to be personally delightful, warm, engaging and deeply caring about her guest’s experience being the best it can be.
Not only was Molly a real professional when it came to up-front communications, she made a point of personally stopping by after we’d settled in to meet us. She’d answered our questions, showed us where the Laundry room was and ensured that we were good to go before parting. In that chat, she shared with us how much work she’d done to rehabilitate this 1890’s era Victorian. From what she told me, this entire house was in such a state when she bought it that she basically had to gut the place and start over again, turning it into a truly lovely place to stay.
I’ve done a fair bit of renovation myself over the years in old homes, so I know full well that turning a run down hovel into something this nice takes a lot of time, hard work and expense. All of that hard work and her great attention to every detail shines through in the end result she achieved. We loved the decorative accents, in particular the main room wall as the wallpaper really makes the room feel open and much larger than it is. We also really liked the flooring in the bath, as its the most unique and visually engaging flooring I’ve ever enjoyed.
