This apartment was in an incredible location, right in the heart of downtown, just like advertised. That does mean, however, that it can get really loud. We were there during the World cup so the volume coming from the bars might have been a bit more than normal, but if you are a light sleeper it could cause problems. My family and I loved the book selection that was in the apartment as well as the washing machine, which came in very handy. Sean was also very nice, giving us some recommendations of where to go and where to avoid.
