"A great spot off Monroe Ave. One dedicated parking spot behind the house and plenty of street parking, which can be rare near the Avenue. We were 3 high school chums that were in town for a 50th reunion, and this spot brought back fond memories of just sitting together on the porch of our own college day rentals. The street is also surprisingly quiet as well. Thanks, Brian, a great stay!"
