Mid-Century DJs Dream near Rhinebeck

Exceptional

Nothing

Kevin sent me the instructions the day before arrival, and they were easy to follow. Kevin also greeted me upon arrival and made sure I knew how to access the property (and showed me around).

The selection of records and sound system were phenomenal! It was nice and warm. And you can see the TV from the couch AND the bed which is nice!

The furnace kicking on was loud at times.

Fine, easy to find, even in the dark. The little hideaway itself is very nicely appointed, the record collection and the nice furniture are cool, the bathroom and other areas are very clean. I didn’t need a washer/dryer, but that's always a perk. The free CCS EV charger saved me a lot of trouble!

It’s strange to enter through the messy garage, especially at night. The fact that the apartment has a blocked staircase to the upstairs but I didn’t know anything about who or what was up there made me slightly uneasy. I imagine that women traveling alone would not be comfortable staying in this place.

Comfortable bed, living, dining, kitchen and bathroom

Entrance was through a garage where the owner parked his electric car with charger. Thankfully he did not plug it in the night we were there. The listing does not include that fact. And the patio shown was not accessible from the apartment. The “garden view” was through a basement window and all I saw was a lawn.

No breakfast but close to where I was taking a workshop so very convenient.

It sounded like there was a cat/ small dog in the room above where I was staying. It played until after 12:00 a.m. which made it very hard to go to sleep as the skittering, vibration and sound definitely made its way into my space.

Kevin was very friendly and quick to provide local recommendations/quick to respond. The space has is quiet and has parking, plus my partner had fun with the audio system.

The apartment is in the basement, so there’s just the occasional common small bug and there was no sponge for the dish soap. Just FYI guests should know this place is connected to the owner’s garage (with his car) and that door that exits to the garage doesn’t lock, though there is a lock before exiting to the outside.
