This small apartment is clean as can be although the building itself is a bit run down. The area right around the apartment building felt a little not so safe at night. If your priority is cost consciousness, go for it. Omar is a very responsive host and made sure all my questions were answered. FYI the futon bed is very soft, the bedroom bed is very very firm and a bit squeaky. If you have lots of work to do, the seats at the breakfast bar are uncomfortable. Overall, excellent stay, no complaints. Thanks Omar.
