The apartment is literally 300 feet from the national museum. The location is great for anything you want to see. Taller people will have to duck to get into the loft. There are no windows. The apartment is in the first floor lobby area. You do have a gate in front of your door that I would recommend locking as well. The main advantage is being close to the museum. The train station is a good mile away. Great for younger couples traveling cheaper. Older couples or those with health problems may need to look elsewhere.
