The apartment is a funky SOHO kind of place that has lots of art school charm and kitsch. The location was close to a streetcar that connected the neighborhood to the downtown and the train station. There were tons of books and other stuff that I wanted to sit down and read. My kids (12 and 14) were the right age to appreciate and respect all of the stuff in the apartment, but I wouldn't recommend this place for people with smaller kids or for people who want a minimalist environment. Mave's communication was great and she made us feel welcome!
