the area is not 100% ideal - it is a bit further afield and requires either one or two metros to get to various attractions. unfortunately, during our stay the metro wasn't running due to a strike on the friday and a reduced service on the sunday which made getting around limited to over an hour walk, ubers that were hard to find during a metro strike or the worlds busiest public bus. i would absolutely reccomend checking for upcoming strikes/industrial action before organising a stay here. the apartment is lovely, however, if u dont sleep well in a light room, i'd reccomend bringing an eye mask, as there are no blinds! the apartment is lovely, clean and tastefully decorated and had a fully functional kitchenette and well sized shower. had the metro been working fully it would have been the perfect weekend accomodation! would definitely reccomend!
