Mark's place was exactly as expected - in a good way! Charming little studio. Fantastic location, safe neighborhood - walking distance to lots of great spots (Mark provides an extensive list of suggestions upon arrival). Mark and his family do live upstairs and there was quite a bit of morning noise (starting around 6:30 AM) when the kiddos woke up and started moving for the day, but Mark was fully transparent about that and it was a great reason to get up, get ready, and get exploring! Would absolutely stay here again.
