Big globs of hairy mold greeted us when we opened the dishwasher. Kathy is renovating 14 apartments on this site and said she couldn't stay on top of everything. She was nice to us but it was like dealing with the Keystone Cops. The second floor where we stayed was recently divided into two apartments. The heat intake straddles the top of the door to the turret room apartment where we stayed. A large square has been cut into the wall above the door in order not to block the heat intake; you can hear everything in the hallway through that large square. We did not have neighbors so can't tell you about noise from the opposite apartment. The bathroom is tiny. The toilet is squeezed up against the vanity. There is no heat in the bathroom other than what comes in from the rest of the apartment when you keep the door open. The newly-installed, full kitchen is tiny with little counter space and had so few cooking implements we had to bring in our own from home. (We stayed here 10 days while our house was being remodeled so we had access to everything we needed. It you're from out-of-town and want to do more than take-out, this isn't the kitchen for you.) This location if FABULOUS! You're three blocks from the main street, University Avenue with lots of restaurants, etc. But your street is quiet because near-by one-way cross-town streets take all the through traffic. There is a whole Foods about 6-8 blocks away. For a treat, go to Coupa Cafe on Ramona and have the spicy Maya chocolate or mocha.
