The basement apartment is in a quiet neighborhood that's within walking distance to restaurants/bars. A Lyft to downtown was about $8-11. Biketown rental bikes are close by. The space was clean, cozy, and had some good light. As others have noted, the noise from upstairs can be loud at times but generally bearable. If you prefer a roomy shower, then this is not the place for you--I definitely felt claustrophobic as the shower curtails kept rubbing against me. Other than lacking any sizable mirror to get ready with, it has the amenities you would need.
