Okay, pros and cons -
Pros:
1) Very clean space
2) Lively neighbored with lots of good food and shopping.
3) Right in front of the metro station
4) Communicative host
Cons:
1) Absolutely no lights in the stairwell or at the front door to the apartment so you are left carrying luggage, coming home late or trying to open your front door in total darkness. There’s a sensor light that sometimes comes on. It was not comfortable for me to come to the apartment at night in the dark. It’s a first floor walk up in a busy neighborhood and the front door to the building doesn’t lock so it simply didn’t feel safe even if the neighborhood itself is a safe one. Please not that nothing happened during our stay, it just didn’t feel quite right. I wouldn’t recommend this space to anyone who is staying alone.
2) The pipes make some crazy noises. It’s just pipes so really this isn’t a huge deal but the sounds are loud enough and consistent enough that they woke my husband up several times during the night, which wasn’t ideal since you know, vacation should mean good sleep.
