The building is unique and cute! It is secure, so if you are a single woman traveling, this place is certainly secure. Overall place is clean. No dryer though, so if you plan on doing laundry, you will need to take your clothes to the laundrymat to dry off. The apartment we were in didn't have much sun exposure so we couldn't rely on the sun to dry our clothes. Place is removed from downtown so if you are expecting night life, expect to use public transportation to get ynin/out of downtown.
