The basement apartment is very clean spacious, and nicely decorated. There is a combined bedroom/living room, as well as a good -sized kitchen and a bathroom with shower. The queen size bed is very comfortable. The apartment stayed comfortably cool during our stay, despite temperatures in the high 80s. The apartment was generally very quiet but we occasionally heard a bit of noise from upstairs or outside. The apartment is conveniently located within walking distance of parks, stores, and restaurants. Dona is a very pleasant person and we enjoyed meeting her.
