Really nice apartment, handy location near to shops and 24 bus route, maybe 13 minutes from Mission Street also. There really is good local amenities, an excellent grocery store with good prices, and a nice cafe. The apartment is at the back of the house, so very quiet (I slept very well with the wiindow open to the bug screen) and sunk a few feet below the level of a not-to-be-used back garden. Because of this, the apartment is quite shaded, so should be cool. There's a door to the back, I guess you could maybe open this but not go out if it was too hot.
Very well equipped kitchen (one of the best I've found in an apartment). Good wifi. Fairly quiet fridge (US fridges can be very noisy!)
Entrance is through a garage/utility room, but once inside it is your own comfortable space. As you can't use outdoor footwear after the entrance, you should bring indoor flipflops or thick socks for the cool laminate flooring. Nice bathroom, good boiler fed shower.
Can really recommend this apartment :)
