Renata's apartment is a great place. It's close to the center as well as some really nice shops and restaurants in the 8th district, yet in a quiet side street. We did not hear any construction noise from the nearby U2/U5 subway construction site at all. The apartment is big and well equipped, and Renata left very detailed and helpful instructions and recommendations. We were really happy with the bed! It's firm but super comfortable (most hotel/airbnb beds are way too soft for us and give us back aches). Highly recommended.
