Kirk's place is excellent and in a perfect location. The beds are comfortable and it is relatively quiet. The only reason we rated it 4 stars instead of 5 stars is that you have to climb two flights of stairs to get to the apt. Otherwise, we have nothing to criticize. Kirk has arranged for a local coordinator-Allan--to greet guests in person and give them info about the apartment and the neighborhood. Allan is also available to answer any questions and otherwise help during your stay. We found this to be a significant benefit.
