As so many others have said, Karene's place is in the BEST neighborhood location! I ate a few times at Quarter on the corner and a waitress even gave me a hug the last time! Karene is hospitable and gracious, regularly checking in by message and willing to help if necessary. W 10th can get a little noisy in the morning with trash pickup, deliveries, and buses, and this was a month of additional construction as well... I found it all rather invigorating. The apartment was very clean and welcoming with plenty of room. There are plans in the works for updating the kitchen area, which will be cool. It was easy to use the shared laundry facilities in the building. Life is good in this place!
