This was a lovely, immaculately clean apartment. Perfect for one person, good for two. Parking is a breeze which can be challenging (for different reasons) throughout the bay area. This is situated on the street level portion of a house with other living quarters above. There was no problem with noise. There is a kitchen window over the sink which looks out onto some bushes and plants (you are eye level with the bottom of them.) Lots of hummingbirds congregate there - a real treat.
