Here's what I loved about the place. First, the apartment is private and clean. Marina and her family have added their own personal touches which make the place very comfortable.
I was visiting long-term on business. The full kitchen simplified life for me by allowing me to make my own meals and clean up quickly. The bedroom is separate from the living room giving you privacy and a good night's sleep on a very comfortable bed. Having a washer and dryer and a closet area meant that clothes were out of the way and clean.
The location is close to the highway in a residential neighborhood that is quiet. Marina and her family were very welcoming helpful, willing to share anything I needed for cooking or cleaning, as well as a friendly conversation about family and travel. You are just minutes from I-5 and whatever you want to drive to. Marina suggested Sprout's Farmers Market which was a good find for healthy food, as well.
