The apartment is in a really good location and very near a Metro, but you can walk to the centre easily too. Checking in and out was so easy thanks to the key box and I had everything I needed in the apartment for my stay. The apartment had a lovely vibe to it and is wonderfully decorated and I loved sitting on the balcony (although don't put your drying washing in front of the neighbour's window!). There were lots of kitchen utensils which was great too. While I didn't light the candles outside on the balcony, there are matches in a little drawers on the shelf should you need to find them! Some people said this is not a great area but I had no issues at all and it all felt very safe to me. There is a big supermarket very near called Bazaar and also a smaller shop right nearby too. If you do any excursions as I did, the Novatel Hotel is 5 minutes walk and you can get picked up there. I had a wonderful stay and would recommend the apartment.
