Very fast and easy communication with the host. The interior of the apartment is nice -- modern and very clean. The neighborhood is good with some great neighborhoods in close proximity. So lots of pluses to the apartment. The only downside of the apartment is that it is on the ground floor, with the large living room window literally at street level right next to the sidewalk. Windows are covered with opaque film, so there is both natural light and privacy, but one can't look outside. The interior decoration, etc. is very nice, but the lack of any view of the outside makes the place seem a bit sterile.
