Michael apartment is in a very nice neighborhood, in a remodeled house with 2 levels. It faces the street with a bus stop right in front so it's a bit noisy but we got used to it and after walking and a lot of sightseeing we fell asleep with no problems. There is a Safeway and Trader Joe in walking distance - for grocery supplies if you need it. Plenty of good restaurants, too. The apartment is clean, with comfortable beds and pillows , extra blankets and bed linen if you need it. The sofa bed in the living area was very useful for us ( family of 4 with 2 older kids) . The kitchen is equipped with everything you need for cooking - utensils and pans and pots ( including a Keurig with pods, tea, sugar, creamer). Michael and Heide were very responsive to all of our requests , we communicated mostly through phone messages but the responses were fast and clear. Thank you Michael and Heide for being wonderful hosts.
