Way better than we were hoping for! Yes, the apartment is better than the pictures. We were in love with the high ceilings and the building that it is located in. Also, the location could not be better! Super easy to go everywhere, but also away from the fuss and noise of downtown. The bed and sofa were super comfortable and was everything spotlessly clean. The communication with the owners was super easy, quick, and the instructions for everything were very detailed. We will definitely stay there again!
