The building is old and musty smelling and the carpeting in the hallways definitely need replacing. That said, the condo itself is very nice, bright and very clean. The beds are very comfortable. We did hear the other renters at different times of the night coming and going, but there was no noise after 11:00P...The parking area behind the building is very well lit at night, which we liked. Interesting part of the city...nice boutiques near by...Overall, I would recommend.
