The apartment was in a great part of town, away from the overwhelming hordes of tourists in the old town, with plenty of restaurants and cafes within an easy walk. At the same time, it had great tram and/or subway access for getting anywhere one might want to go in the city. The apartment itself was light and airy, facing onto a park. It was very comfortably appointed and clean. An added bonus was a washer and dryer--great for us, after traveling for 2 weeks before we got there. Maxim was a very helpful host
