Nice place, great location. Larger than it appears in photos, with a nice balcony in the bedroom overlooking the lower street. Noise not a problem, although you can hear some conversation, etc. through the bathroom vent and occasionally outside the balcony. But there are good quality windows so not a problem for most people. You must manage electric usage as it will shut off if too many things are running. Good heating. GREAT shower. Nice to have washer/dryer but dryer does take a long time. Be careful about drying on cotton (algodon) because it is very hot and will shrink clothing. Overall, a great value for the apartment and location.
