The apartment is beautiful! My husband and I stayed here for 3 nights, but would've stayed for longer. It is within walking distance to major sites. It is maybe 2 blocks into an urban area that is lively at times, but the apartment is VERY safe and secure. Out of the 3 nights, there was only one with some street noise we could hear in the living room, but this is a major city. You cannot hear any street noise in the bedroom. I would absolutely stay here again!
