My two boys and I enjoyed our stay -ringing out one decade and ushering in the new one. The apartment is well-appointed but not overly done - in Goldilocks terms it was just right. The location works well with the trolley being within walking distance. The neighborhood was quiet and there are several restaurants nearby including two that have received a good bit of acclaim. We didn't cook - but the kitchen is well appointed for those with culinary gifts. The amenities in the bathroom were outstanding - sunscreen? Check. Make up remover swabs? Check. Soaps, lotions, conditioners of sorts? Check. Belly remedies for over rich food and/or drink? Check. and the list goes on. In addition, Mike responded to any inquiries so fast I thought maybe he had already read my mind and composed a reply text before I hit send. The climate control was easy to use and worked well. For budget savvy and/or lean packing travelers consider this: Because of the full fledged kitchen and the washer and dryer - you can travel lean and eat on a lean budget. This one is a winner.
