the apartment was ok, not as new as it seemed to be in the pictures, but nothing that would compromise our stay. the apartment is well located, near public transportation and everything. we didn't however like the way we were treated by the host. at the check in he was really rude, it seemed to us that we was in a hurry, explaining everything fast and not really receiving us. he even told us that we wouldn't have to use the heat because "it wasn't that cold" and didn't explain how to use it - we had to find out because it WAS that could, specially with three little children. the host gave us a card to use in public transportation but it had a debt on it, we had to pay the debt (probably left by the previous guest) to be able to use it. the check out process was as rude and in a hurry as the check in. we didn't feel welcome or well received at all. in short, we would recommend the apartment, but not the host.
