Joan's spot is in a great location. You are in walking distance of many awesome restaurants, parks, and some shopping! You are close to busses and trains, and if you are driving, parking won't be an issue for you. We had our dog with us and it was a great spot to walk him and meet some of the neighbor dogs as well. Joan is very communicative about temperature and checked in with us to make sure our needs were met. Her communication is very timely. We didn't spend a lot of time in the apartment as we were mostly out and about exploring- but when we were there our needs were met. Clean, calm and pet friendly! This neighborhood is very laid back and quiet. My partner is around 5'10 and did need to duck in some spots but it did not put a damper on our experience at all. If you want to cook, your will have space to do so here. We loved our trip! :-)
