Maria's apartment is of course recently renovated, but the building itself is in a very very bad condition. Please take note that the apartment is on the third floor and there's no elevator. The neighborhood is not central and, therefore, options for restaurants nearby are limited; for supermarkets as well. In terms of quietness, we were unlucky enough to visit the place while a building next door was under construction and, in the absence of soundproofing, the place was quite noisy. Other than this, the neighborhood is quiet.
