Great apartment
Great location, quiet neighborhood. Lots of places to eat and near many major shopping stores. Apartment is very nice and building quiet. Just be prepared for a bit of rumbling from the exhaust from the restaurant downstairs which lasts from around 10am-10pm. Not terribly loud but may be a bit distracting if working from home.
