Heather's place is perfect for a couple or small family--we brought our 11 year old who slept on the couch. It's small but has everything you need, including a kitchen stocked for cooking simple meals, a bathtub (that's a big one for me) and laundry facilities. It is attractively decorated, the bed was comfy, and the outdoor space is just perfect for lounging with morning coffee or reading a book in the afternoon. 2 blocks above a row of great restaurants, including a deli, Thai, Mexican and ice cream/gelato, with a Japanese restaurant across the street, you might never need to leave the neighborhood. If you have a car, it's also easy access to beaches, zoo, downtown, etc. And the parking spot seals the deal. We would absolutely stay here again.
