We loved this place! Close to metro, several good Vietnamese restaurants, and a lovely bakery. The neighborhood was a bit scruffy but very safe, and I loved sitting on the balcony watching children play in the neighborhood playground. It was not a tourist area, it was fun to people watch, and we very much enjoyed walking at sunset in the beautiful nearby park. The apartment itself was creative, artistic, and very comfortable. I was worried about the heat as it had no AC, but the blinds and fans kept it surprisingly cool and it wasn’t an issue. Highly recommended!
