The apartment looked like the photos, the building and interior courtyard was nice, quiet and it was just right for the four of us. We liked the closeness of the metro station and wish we had more time to explore the area around the neighborhood! Not near the touristy parts of the city so that was nice, but it was also easily accessible. Carole was there to meet us and had a list of items in the apartment on where to go and what to see that was very handy. We enjoyed our stay very much.
