The apartment is very nice, with good amenities, and was very clean. The location is good - right across from a metro station and with a large shopping complex across the street. The only downsides were the two flights of stairs and the lack of air-conditioning (it was very hot). There was an object in the bedroom which looked like either a heater or air-conditioner but nothing happened when we plugged it in and there were no instructions as to its use. Contact with the host was minimal but adequate.
