The appartment was quite interesting, completely unexpected but so lovely. The hostess(sister in law as the actual owners were out of town) was so friendly and forthcoming. I wanted to drop my bag early so I could use the rest of the day early and she was wonderful in allowing me to do so and check in early.
The walk from the metro line 8 to their place was also through a quiet Part of the City which was quite refreshing.
It was small, and warm and all that I needed, as I was out all day and just came back to sleep :)
