We had a great stay at Pamela's studio apartment. The location was very good - close to transit, with lots of food options, and a great view of the canal. The apartment included everything you could need and Pamela's communication was excellent - both prompt and thorough.
I was concerned that there might be a lot of noise from the street given how active the neighborhood was, but with the shutters and the windows, it was surprisingly quite quiet for the middle of the city. However, there was a good bit of noise each night from people within the building as the construction of the open stairwell meant that sound travelled very easily. Pamela had provided earplugs, but if you're a light sleeper, this may be something to consider.
