Old world charm meets late model IKEA. That's NOT an insult. Well appointed even if the wine glasses are on the small side. Maybe they're trying to tell me something. Simple set of rules, don't do the stuff you shouldn't do, don't be loud to the downstairs neighbors, enjoy the space. I was concerned with it being right off the freeway but even with the windows open for the cool breeze I really didn't notice the traffic. It's just steps to Trendythird street full of all the hip joints. Still, I felt like something was missing. Fridge with filtered water, check. Nice towels, check. TV that wasn't crazy complicated to operate, check. What was it? Then I found the magic 8 ball and all was zen.
