This location is great. Very central to most everything. We walked pretty much everywhere--- but you are also a 3 minute walk to the metro. The only things to be prepared for is that it is HOT in the summer. The room gets hot (which is A norm amongst Mediterranean apartments) so bring some light sleepwear. The apartment is in a lively part of town that likes to play hard on the weekends. It is noisy but if you are looking for a good time and some nightlife it is perfect. Lots of good restaurants and bars around as well.
