This beautiful apartment was spotless, well supplied, comfortable, everything we look for in a home away from home. It is even more attractive and spacious than it appears in the photos. It was quiet for a first floor space in a major city. Sophie couldn't have been sweeter or more helpful. Groceries are nearby and restaurants and cafes only steps away. We took advantage of the tourist pass to travel by bus and metro around the city cheaply. The bus is at the corner and the metro is several blocks or you can take the bus to the metro. This is a great place to stay, we would come back in a heartbeat.
