I stayed at this lovely little (very little...) apartment / house just off of Rose Ave on 5th Ave for 2 weeks in September and really really liked the proximity to the beach, the shops etc. Everything could be done walking or taking the Blue Bus. The small house is in the backyard of a main house with 2 more little houses/apartments grouped around a courtyard of BBQ and seating area, which serves as nice meeting point with the owners of the property (who live in the main house) and the other rentors (if you want to meet). The apartment itself is very nicely furnished and was equipped with all I needed really - comfortable but not luxurious.
All is very neat and clean and very practicable. I very muched liked the owners of the property as well (a Hungarian couple) and their two (unobtrusive) dogs. Real nice place for one person. I would not recommend for more than 1.
Thanks Pascal (I never met you unfortunately...)!
