Check-in was very easy. Unfortunately, our train was delayed in-route and Christina could no longer meet us, but she quickly arranged for a friend to check us in. He did a through job of explaining the apartment.
I had read that this side of the river can be very busy and noisy. While that may be true, the area of Christina's apartment is very quiet at night. We had no problems sleeping.
We liked that there was a clothes washer, which is one reason we picked the place. There is no dryer, but Christina did provide a drying rack and a fan in the closet. We set up the fan next to the rack, and dried our clothes quickly.
The kitchen was well stocked for basic cooking.
The apartment doesn't have much natural lighting but since we were out and about during the day, this was not an issue for us. There are enough lights provided to accommodate us well after dark.
