The apartment is a little far from the center, but it’s walkable if you’re willing to sweat. It’s also very easy to find the bus stop into the historical center. The bus runs fairly often and well into the night as well. They also have air conditioning!
Being able to use the kitchen was great, since food in the center tended to be pricey. There’s also a giant supermarket nearby that’s worth seeing, even if there’s no need for groceries. There’s not a ton to see in the neighborhood itself, but there are a few bars and rosticcerie, as well as a couple restaurants.
