Maria's apartment was just as we expected -- roomy, clean and convenient. We are four women of retirement age, and we were able to spread out comfortably in the three lovely bedrooms. Dressers and wardrobes made it especially easy to unpack and stay organized. Although there is a lift, there are still about ten stairs up to the apartment, so if you are not able to do stairs, be sure to consider this. There is a lot of traffic noise that can be heard in the bedroom at the front of the building, but the other two bedrooms were much quieter. Fortunately, the noise didn't bother the two of us who used that bedroom even though we kept the windows open at night to cool off the room. (Closing the windows helps with the noise, but we were more interested in staying cool!) Maria provided good information about the apartment, information about transportation, and suggestions for places to eat and drink. The location is great. We walked to many points of interest and easily took public transportation to others. All in all, it was a pleasant stay in a very nice apartment, and we would stay there again.
