This is a nice small apartment in a secure building. There is a small elevator to go up to the 4th floor, where the apartment is located. From a North American point of view, things are rather small: the elevator (can fit 3 people max), the apartment itself, the dining table, the shower, ... It is not a bad thing in itself, just not what we are used to. However, the location is really good. You can find everything you need within 10 minutes on foot, including 2 subway stations. By the way, buying 10 subway tickets at once will save you money. Beware of Google, though, because we rushed one night to go to a market because according to Google it would close at 9 while in reality it did so at 10, so take Google's advice and information with a grain of salt. Besides that, the apartment had almost anything you could wish for, except for a microwave oven. Also, we could have done laundry, but I have no idea where we could have hung our clothes to dry, so you may want to ask if you think you will do laundry. There was a small fan in the double bedroom but none in the other bedroom. It was hot at night, so having a fan in each room would have been preferred. Overall, I liked my stay there.
