We had a lovely time at the loft. The location is lovely, right acrossfrom the science center and a short walk to the ferris wheel. Up the hill a few blocks to restaurants, shops, and the bus. Really ideal for us. Long-term parking is tricky (we ended up putting it in a garage) but it was easy to park close to unload. The unit is as advertised; the kitchenis small but workable and we loved the big dining room table and the comfy couch. YMMV in terms of privacy (the larger bedroom does not have a door), but we liked that we could put our daughter to sleep in the enclosed bedroom and be up talking or watching TV without bothering her. All in all, worked out well for us.
