What a great location and spot to stay for a few nights while traveling for work. Great amenities in the building and awesome restaurants right within walking distance! Will be coming back & staying again.

Cute little apartment! Very nice shared rooftop space with pool & hot tub. The unit itself was a bit smaller than expected & the balcony that appeared in pictures was only a sliding door with 2 inches of space before the guardrail (not a usable space). There's not always a lot of convenient parking (you have to find a spot on the street). It's disappointing that the parking lot for the building is off limits for airbnb guests. There are however, lots of restaurants within walking distance from the building. Overall, it was a nice stay.

Good place for a short stay. Good restaurants on the area. Positive: We like the location and the building. Parking can be an issue as “on street” is very crowded. Negative: The cleanliness of our room was okay, but not great.

This was not the space for a family with a baby. Street parking wasn’t always easy, it’s a bummer renters can’t use the parking lot. The apartment was small, the kitchen has what you need to cook, but everything felt basic and not the “home away from home” feeling we were looking for. If we were younger and without kids it might have been better but then I don’t know how we would have afforded it. Overall felt expensive for what we got.
