We stayed a month in February so had plenty of time to evaluate. All in all, a very nice place. The building can be a shocker but the apartment is safe and secure. The bedroom next to the family with kids will keep you awake so pick the one by the bathroom. The bathroom offers no privacy and the breaker must be on green for a hot shower. The kitchen was adequate for coffee & restaurant leftovers and the heating units kept the place warm. The location was very convenient to the metro, taxi and coffee shops. Communication with the owner was quick and easy.
