On the positive side: 1) Rebecca was extremely helpful, friendly, and prompt in responding to all of my questions; 2) great location with regard to beach and Rose Ave. -- only a 20 minute walk to beach (much less on bike provided) and great restaurants and coffee shops on Rose, which is main street to beach; 3) shower was great
On negative side: 1) the alley access was much less desirable than expected -- it's very long, bumpy, with lots of garbage bins and trash littering the way to the apartment; also a homeless person living in the alley just beyond the apartment; 2) I would have preferred a coffee maker to the espresso machine but that's just me
