The owner was very welcoming. He even carried my luggage 3 flights of stairs.
The apartment is as described, though the owner lives upstairs and you both share the same entrance, but separated by a remote controlled roller door so you still get your privacy.
It's a nice place overall. You get complementary bread, eggs, milk and cereal. I thought it was a nice touch.
Location is great, only 5 mins away from ECU and 5 mins away from the big shops.
I would definitely come back again in February.
