The apartment was in a good location for the hiking we wanted to do in the nearby parks. The location is on a 2-lane 45mph road so there is some noise but it was not that noticeable and didn't bother us while sleeping. The apartment was a good space for the 2 of us, nice bedroom, comfortable bed, and we appreciated the coffee and coffee maker. There is a nice fire pit along the river and we were able to make use of it one evening. We did just fine without a kitchen (refrigerator and microwave were good) as we ate at nearby local restaurants. Boulder Creek Pizza and Pub had really good pizza. We highly recommend the apartment and host.
