We stayed for the month of August and had the best experience. The apartment was bright and airy. It was close enough to the touristy areas to walk but far enough away to feel like we were part of a neighborhood. We kept the windows/doors open most of the time and the cross-draft was amazing. Even on the hottest days. We were two families with four kids total (ages 12-14). We felt very safe and even allowed the kids to walk up the block on their own for meals. The restaurants in the block are really tasty. Downstairs is Maria’s Food Hub (octopus!). Up the street is RetroGusto84 (all kinds of pizza - highly recommend the Vadia), Brick, and Retro food (kids loved it as they had fried chicken sandwiches). Most important here is that the host Chris is just wonderful! Super timely, thoughtful, and accommodating communication. We asked for an extra fan, preparing for some hot days and he gave us a big fan for each room. Just wish every host was Chris;) Don’t hesitate to book, you won’t regret it!
