It was exactly as depicted in the photos. Some coffees and other refreshments were provided upon arrival, which was a nice touch. Ramez's son Jack was waiting for us pretty much street side to let us in and go over the apartment furnishings and appliances. Very professional and courteous. While there was a couple of adult venues in the surrounding blocks, we never felt intimidated or overwhelmed by their presence. The neighborhood does lack any real sit down restuarants with ambience, but that kind of atmosphere is only a short walk away in old town. This apartment is in an excellent location in regards to being away from the touristy neighborhood, yet close enough that the touristy sites are only a short walk away. I would recommend considering this flat.
