Next to a McDonalds and close to laundromat and safeway. Parking is street, and not gauranteed. No parking Thu mornings for street cleaning! Apartment was clean, quiet enough, lock on inside of bedroom door. The shower gets hot if you give it a couple minutes and there is no heat adjustment in the apartment, only central air. So if you are easily chilled, bring layers in the winter. The host was very quick to communicate.
