The view and location of the apartment is superb. Close to shopping and many landmarks are only a mile or 2 away. The balcony is a lovely place to sit and enjoy the sounds of the city. The apartment had a nice breeze in the evening with the beautiful floor to ceiling windows open. I would recommend this apartment. Xavier communicated well and gave me all pertinent information to assure we had a nice stay. The apartment has all you need from ironing, blow dryer, cooking, baking, etc...
