Verdict
Book

The host and co-hosts Devora, Mary and Nell get said they liked for warmth and responsiveness, and recent guests were glad of free parking, a rooftop deck with a grill, homemade breakfast, and park views. Go in knowing that 4 of 436 reviews mention the neighborhood lacking nearby restaurants and groceries, 1 of them in the last year, and that no pattern of problems turned up across the reviews we read.

The apartment has no doors between the living area, kitchen, and two bedrooms. Four reviews mention this layout, including two five-star guests who knew what they were getting. The French review and two others in low ratings did not realize this before booking.

Problems run at 4.4% of reviews in the last year and 4.9% before that. That is down, but not by enough to call it improving.
