Overall the apartment was as-advertised and Flavio was very helpful on check-in. We found the area nearby to be pretty safe at night, and had no problem finding good places to eat, shop, or have a drink. As other guests have said, the unit is above a subway which comes by every 10-15 minutes or so. While it stops around midnight, it starts again quite early. If you are not used to this, you may want to bring earplugs. The bed is ok, but could probably use a memory foam pad on top as it feels a bit worn out. I don’t see other complaints about this so might just be our preference, I don’t know. All in all a good overall experience.
