At first the quietness of the place was a little haunting for a city girl like me but it didn't even take half a day for me to get comfortable with the super friendly and residential neighbourhood. It is the perfect home to come back to after a long day in the city. A couple of big supermarkets were just 5 mins away and Angie helped out with anything I needed very promptly.
There is a bus stop just a few steps outside the house with regular lines that go anywhere you need to. However, I preferred walking as the city center, the hills and the beach all were just about 30-40 mins away and the weather was excellent, surprisingly.
Would highly recommend - it was safe, clean, and had all the amenities mentioned in the description.
