Bright and funky(but not too funky) was an excellent description. Flat was clean and quiet with descent amenities. Location was good with grocery and restaurant options on Carlisle St. approximately two blocks away. Light rail was within two blocks as well. My son and I were there to see Formula I (20 minute walk to track)in mid March so the weather was around 80(26). Having the windows open was comfortable while sleeping. The ac was used briefly one afternoon and worked well. The only surprise in the area was the amount of graffiti . There is tagging everywhere. Regardless, we still felt safe walking at night. There were usually people walking about at the same time and would often gesture politely in passing. Overall, I would certainly recommend this flat too others.
