Tom's place is literally close to everything. even though I didn't have a car I was able to walk everywhere. The beach is 5 to 6 minutes away depending on how fast you walk. The marketplace, so many ABC stores, restaurants etc are right around the corner. public transportationis also right there if needed. The staff in the building were nice and helpful. As a solo traver I felt very safe because you need a fab to get on to the floor you are staying on. The neighborhood can be quite active and a little noisy sometimes however, the AC will drown out the noise. Tom was always available for questions. There are folders in the unit with suggestions of activities and everything else you can think of. Thanks for a great stay I will be back.
