The location was ideal, close to a lot (100s?) of bars and restaurants, a metro stop, etc. Make sure to start your day off with a pastry and coffee at Manteigaria...we did...all 3 days we were there. The neighborhood was a little noisy, but the bedroom in in the back of the building, top floor, so it wasn't really too bad. I would certainly recommend staying here. great location, value, and hospitality.
