What a lovely apartment! Has everything you need and is super stylish. Alexis was very easy to communicate with and got back to us during our stay, even though she was away in another country. I was nervous about the check in process as we were not meeting anyone or given real keys, however I didn't need to worry. It was exactly as she informed us and was quite easy to check in.
The area is as everyone else has stated, there are a lot of homeless around and the buying and selling of drugs on the street is apparent. However we learnt to walk a different way round the block and had no problems with anyone. I probably wouldn't stay here if I was on my own though.
Would definitely stay here again and recommend this apartment to friends.
