This apartment is very conveniently located. There are two metro stops within a block or two and a small grocery store right downstairs. The courtyard is also nice -- lots of plants and very quaint. There was a little street noise from a bar or restaurant behind the apartment until about 1 a.m., but it wasn't too bad and was less noticeable when the windows, shutters, and curtains were closed. My 65 year-old mother and I had a great time here. I would definitely stay again.
