This apartment is a home away from home. The picture and details provided are true to life. The bedroom is located up in the loft, so you do have to climb up a ladder, but I think this just adds to the fun and charm of this place. The location was great and close enough to all the hot spots in the North Shore. During our stay in December, there wasn't too much traffic, and the surroundings were very peaceful. Summer was a wonderful host and very attentive.
