Lovely apartment in a great location. We loved the neighborhood. It was a block from the "U" so you could get anywhere in the city easily. There were lots of restaurants nearby and lots of variety-- of course German, good Indian, Thai, sushi. There is a cat that comes with the apartment, so if you are allergic, chose somewhere else. The cat is VERY friendly and affectionate. If you love books, you will love being surrounded by them. There is everything you need here, including washer and dryer. The bed is comfortable, too. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay.
