The area is lovely. There's plenty of grocery stores and restaurants only a short drive (or a long walk) away. There's a public park directly behind the apartment which was nice to walk around in and get some exercise. The kitchen was a little on the small side but had everything we needed to cook. I do wish there was a dresser provided. There is a shoe organizer in the closet already, and we picked up a few extras for ourselves to use as a replacement for a dresser and those got the job done. The private half bath was very convenient, as was the sliding door leading directly to the backyard. There was ample parking along the streets as well as a spot in the driveway available to guests. Shirley always responded promptly to any communications sent and was very helpful. All in all, our stay was pleasurable and I'd definitely come back.
