The apartment was very good value, clean and with modern furnishing. We loved the beds and the shower, and also the living room area was nice for relaxed movie nights. We agree that there was a certain shadiness to the area, though as a young, well-traveled group it didn't bother us too much (we still walked everywhere). It was super convenient to be able to walk to all the important areas of the city center. All in all, we were very happy :)
