We stayed in Sonia's apartment during the first week of September.
The positives:
1. The apartment is in a very convenient location. Definitely a plus!
2. Clean and well maintained
3. Cross-breeze is wonderful in the evenings
4. The unobstructed view of the parliament with the guards pointlessly meandering about...

The negatives:
1. No elevator, and the apartment is on the 4th floor, with a steep staircase in the final level.
2. While we stayed at her apartment, there was on-going construction in the two apartments below and there was a lot of drilling/hammering noise all day long. Thankfully they stopped working by 7pm each day and we got some peace afterwards...
