It worked out perfect for me as I used to live north of there. Felt safe walking around after dark if coming back. Close to markets, drug store, banking, restaurants and close to transit to get downtown. Also within walking distance to great restaurants. Iris was a perfect host and I felt like home in my "cozy cottage". Loved sitting in the afternoon on the daybed with the newspaper and the fireplace on with a cup of tea. Had a lot going on so staying there was an oasis at the end of the day. Thank you
