It was a great value for a very spacious and comfortable apartment. Bill made check-in easy even though we arrived late at night. The metro stop is more like 15 minute walk away. There are many restaurants near the metro stop so we recommend eating before you return home because there are not many food options by the apartment. Supermarket and bakery are very close though! In the evening it was a bit noisy from street activity. Don't let the graffiti in the area intimidate you as it did us, we came to learn by the end of our trip that graffiti is everywhere and considered normal.
