The Garden Retreat is a sweet place to call home while visiting the City. Marina’s description is very accurate, as we found the space small but efficient, and on a nice day, we found the patio to be charming and private. Check in and check out were easy; be prepared to climb some stairs to get to the unit. Using public transportation or taxi services are recommended, since parking is fairly tight, so best to leave your car parked (be sure to observe signs on street cleaning days). We would definitely stay here again.
