One can not hope to find a better spot to be near the city without being in it. Walking opportunities are endless and public transportation is easily accessible.
We are not big on hyperbole, but Sylvia is as fine a host as one will find. She was in constant contact with us prior to our arrival. She provided excellent information on the area (food/activities). We could not have asked for better conversation.
The room is comfortable. Anyone with the smallest artistic sense, will be thrilled with the warmth and subtlety of the decor. Additionally, there is the most lovely outdoor space for eating, conversation, or relaxation.
Our biggest regret was that we didn't have more time to talk art and creativity with our host.
This will be our destination spot next time we are in the area.
