We had a wonderful time in Phil's place and would definitely stay here again. The neighborhood is residential. Parking our car was not a problem and Phil communicated with us prior to arrival with street parking details. The apartment is very clean and has all the necessities for a long or short stay. Phil has guide books and maps available too. We had no noise problems similar to what some other reviewers had said. The bed was very comfortable and there are extra blankets and towels if you need them.
