This is a very modern and upscale apartment with all the latest technology in appliances. There is no microwave oven, although that is a minor inconvenience. The unit is on the ground floor so it was a great relief to us to just be able to roll our suitcases right in. Our host Tanya was most helpful, walking us right over to an awesome Vietnamese restaurant for lunch before setting us our on our own. And when we had questions about public transportation, she was quick to offer helpful information.
