The apartment is in a terrific location, an area full of nightlife and abounding in great little restaurants. The view from the balcony is magical and was our favorite place to end every night. Because it is a lively, young area, expect there to be a bit more noise at night, but the windows and shutters block it out and we really didn't find it an issue. Catarina has nicely outfitted the apartment. It's cozy and cute and has everything you need (including an elevator almost to its top floor location). Would happily stay there again!
