I can’t say enough good things about the location of this apartment. This is a vibrant and lively neighborhood with lots of dining and shops just steps from the front door. The apartment itself is super clean, very comfortable, and very cute. I stayed for 2 weeks in late August/ early September and it was incredibly hot outside, yet the apartment remained a nice temperature which was absolutely wonderful. You do hear some noise from the restaurant across the street if you sleep on the pull out, but you don’t hear it in the bedroom at all. Even in the front room the noise is not obtrusive at all. This really was a fantastic place to stay and Julian is a great host.
