The apartment is well located, however the main entrance and the main staircase are use to store the building's garbage (the smell is sickening!). Also, the A/C unit is located in the main living area of the apartment, not in the actual room (So if you want to use it, the door has to stay open and you have no privacy). In order to try and compensate, there is a ceiling fan in the actual bedroom. As for security, it is unclear who has access to the apartment and the bedroom door is not very high security, so we had to keep our valuables on us at all times.
