Super cute little place. Very thoughtful design, uses the space well. Entrance was quite easy, and there are clear instructions posted as soon as you walk through the door. There is a staircase to get to the top, and we ended up taking our shoes off and leaving them by the downstairs door after I accidentally tracked some mud upstairs. We didn't spend much time at the apartment, which was perfect for us. The little balcony was nice and we drank our coffee there every morning - the bag of Coava was a nice surprise and we finished it off! Yum. It was fun being walking distance to all of the shops and restaurants on Missisissipi. We got to meet Mel one day when she was out front doing some gardening, and met the rest of the family as we were leaving. They were all so friendly! I would definitely stay here again.
