Elsie’s apartment is in a good area. She does make it known that parking is hard to find. We did manage to find a spot in front of the laundromat which was no problem at all. To get to the apartment you do have to go up and down a narrow staircase. Accessing the apartment through the back door was more convenient for us. There was no coffee, so if your a coffee drinker take your own. Her apartment is small but very comfortable. Elsie did check up on us and was very responsive.
