Alex was lovely! I had to book these accommodations for some company employee's due to all the hotels in the surrounding area being booked out for conventions/big events. She was super understanding about it. The location of the airbnb was perfect as it was easy walking distance, and it's just far enough off of Duke/Route 1 that it was quite for relaxing after work I was told. I have this accommodation booked marked for future bookings in case we ever need to go the airbnb route again!

What a great location! A short walk to King St. Close to so many great restaurants, ice cream and the metro, but still felt so quiet and homey. We loved the house, was perfect for or family. So clean and welcoming. Thanks Alex, for welcoming us at your place!
