This place was super! It's bigger then we expected. The location is great, this street is very nice. Good restaurants, bars, shops etc. Yes you can hear the street, but it didn't bother us (and I'm a light sleeper). We where there during the weekend and it was nicely busy. You can take a bus or light rail to the centre. I would prefer staying here instead of the city centre. This neighbourhood feels safe and family friendly. Rachel was easy to get in touch with and showed us around in the apartment and had good tips (and coffee! ). Would definitely recommend her place!
