Alan's place is exactly as pictured and he was very responsive and helpful. We had a great stay with our family and it was comfortable and safe for our toddler. If you are unused to apartment living you may have some issues with noises from the apartments above or below as this unit is a second floor walk-up. We loved learning about Hyde Park as we had never stayed there before, and had great access to downtown while being in a family-friendly location with a wonderful playground close by as well! The parking space behind the building was so helpful and the access from the back as well as the front of the unit.
