We were greeted with an abundance of snacks for our kids and a reasonably well stocked and operational kitchen. We found food for our particular needs at Rich's Market a few blocks away. Parking was very tight around this block in the evening, but we did find spots when needed, just not directly in front of the house. Main buses to downtown are less than five minutes by foot and a maximum ten minute wait. The apartment itself was very comfortable for dad, mom, and an 11 and 14 year old to spread out and relax. The neighborhood felt safe, daytime and night. Good restaurants in walking distaance, and the owners provided a helpful map to these. We would stay here again!
