As others have commented, this is a great location. Though lots of shops and restaurants within blocks, the apartment was very quiet.
If you require a wall and a door for privacy, this isn't the place for you because there is no door at the top or bottom of the steps to your room once you enter the apartment. Though we were anxious about the use of only one full bath, at the top of the stairs off the living area, it was simply not a problem. The host was the best - friendly, yet didn't overly visit. She offered lots of helpful information when we asked.
