Eliana's apartment was wonderful! She was a good host, very patient when my girlfriend and I ran behind schedule walking from the train station. She provided us a map of the area and pointed out the highlights. The kitchen was thoughtfully stocked with (good) coffee, cookies and necessities. Best of all - a large sized Moka pot (being from Seattle, we love our coffee). And, a washing machine! The photos really don't do her place justice ... I'd thought the apartment would have been smaller but it was far roomier than I expected. The bedroom is tiny, but why would you need a big one? Nice big main living area with a very comfy sectional-type sofa. Wonderful high ceilings and lots of light.

Yes, it is noisy outside. But if you choose to stay on a main traffic arterial, you have to expect that. I however, loved it, enjoyed watching all the traffic and people. The location is perfect and it was great being in the heart of it all; it's easy walking distance to just about all the attractions. The traffic noise is significantly dampened with the double-paned windows if you choose to close the them. Unless it was bedtime, I liked them open! There is a small balcony that you can stand out on and look around.

We had a great time staying here and would highly recommend it!
