We enjoyed our stay here very much. The neighborhood had shops and restaurants, multiple metro stations, and was quiet and friendly. The apartment was lovely, with a relaxed, cozy feeling,in a charming old building 1 flight of stairs up. The floors and doors were lovely, but being very old, they creaked quite a bit when someone walked or opened a door. We slept well in the back bedroom, which was free of street noise and overlooked a flowered courtyard. It was nice to have a kitchen with a real stove and fridge, and a washer. In spite of hot, muggy weather the apartment was a comfortable temperature. All in all a very nice place!
