This apartment was exactly as described. We spent a wonderful week, as everything was nearby. You could walk around, or to the nearest metro, train, or ferry station. There were also small shops and a supermarket you could walk to in less than 10 minutes.
The internet connection was great at all times. You do have to go to the last floor (about 120 steps or so) to get to the apartment, but it is worth it. I highly recommend this place.
