This is a very comfortable apartment in a quiet location. If you want to live like a local this is the place. The Metro was a 10 minute walk, there are numerous cafes and restaurants just outside the door, a great little market right downstairs with a huge wine and spirits section, as well as pretty diverse food selection. The apartment has a good amount of space and comfortable furnishings and a nice kitchen if you want to dine in. There is a clothes washing machine and a very clever clothes drying line that works very well. Rute was great to work with, she knows the area well and helped us getting a taxi at 4 a.m. I definitely recommend this apartment and it has an elevator!
