Great place for a great price

I enjoyed staying at this apartment. The place is actually nicer than the photos and is more spacious than the photos show. I enjoyed the fact that there is a garage (it is small so don't get an SUV because it won't fit). A remote for the garage door is included with the rental which is nice. There is a full size washer and dryer in the garage. This was a huge advantage as we could wash some of our clothes and having that freedom was so nice and the fact that it was in the private garage made it better. Your garage is a seperate area that is shared with no one which I think made it even better. There is a small patio area near the rear door in the kitchen with a small table where you could eat outside. The kitchen is nice with granite countertops and gas appliances. The kitchen has everything you need. The bedroom is a good size with plenty of room. There are plenty of nice sheets, fluffy pillows, and blankets. The bed was also very comfortable. There is a TV in both the bedroom and the living room which was nice. The living room is larger than the pictures show. The living room does let in some road noise and I think if Di were to add a small fan to the rental to drown that noise out it would be a big help. That is the only issue we had.
I would like to commend Di on having extra pillows, blankets, dishes. Also she stocked it with plenty of towels (8 bath towels & several kitchen towels), paper towels, toilet paper, sweeteners and kitchen items. She also had everything stocked for making coffee so when we arrived we didn't immediately have to go to the grocery store to make coffee the next morning. We have stayed at other condos and had to buy extra toilet paper and grocery items. This was a pleasant surprise and is a little thing that makes your stay more convenient and easy.
Di was very helpful and very nice. I enjoyed her help with everything. It is nice that she lives next door if you need anything. She has a great rental and I am very happy that I chose her rental. The location of this rental is great. You are only a few blocks from Market Street and if you take the 21 bus it can get you to the Ferry Building in about 20-25 minutes. I enjoyed Paxti's for pizza and The Crepe House for chocolate desert crepes. It is close to everything and is a nice area with many shops and restaurants.

Owner's Response: Thanks so much for the comments, I will continue to enjoy and do my best to serve my guests.
This flat is a very well taken care of place, very cozy, and homely, it is a great 1875 Victorian house with lots of original fitures, you will see when you come and stay here.
There are double layer of glasses on the front windows, it does cut out most of the noises from the street outside.
