We really liked our stay in the apartment. It was comfortable, cozy, and welcoming. It is a light-filled space. We did not spend much time in the neighbourhood but did go to Keeper Coffee around the corner a few times, which was delicious and friendly and well worth a visit. We also went to Trader Joe's which is super convenient for groceries etc. We had no issues finding street parking. There is also a good bus connection if you're doing public transit.
