Our experience couldn't have been better. The property was actually better suited for our needs/purpose than we expected. The location was perfect and John provided relevant/interesting information to help us enjoy all the amenities this neighborhood offers. North Beach is lively and charming and can be noisy but John's Charming North Beach Hideaway provided a quiet respite from all the activity and noise just around the corner on Grant. We had a 2 1/2 year old with us and the railroad-car style layout of the apartment was perfect for us to enjoy our time together in the front room/kitchen area while she slept peacefully in the back bedroom.
