Yeah, like I said, no real competition there. ;) But those are only the first two apartments we've looked at... seeing another tomorrow and there are a few more I'm emailing/calling about. We'll see. :)

Also, the floor isn't REALLY heated.. it's just that the heat pipes run under it. But that's good enough for me! ;)
