Tomoko was friendly and helpful, met us at the apartment, showed us around and invited us to make use of the kitchen. The table was set for us to use. The room is small but accurately represented and the bed amazingly comfortable. We had a great meal at Wahoos that Tomoko suggested. The apartment is in an amazing area 1 block away from the 3rd st Promenade and close to public transport. In the morning the hot water does take a long time to get hot and felt I was contributing to lack of water in California! Great position and a good host. Would recommend for a short stay
