Living space very comfortable, and the bedroom was great. View's fabulous. My only slight surprise was just how tiny the bathroom facilities were but I soon over came that and it was really quite a cute little apartment. Parking was great and lovely to have a Permit left on the table. The owner checked in via text and was availabe for any questions. I'd recommend it.
