A really beautiful apartment in a central location! Especially delightful are the multi-directional cross-breezes that can be achieved by opening up the apartment's many doors and windows. Tucked away at the end of an alley, it was just as quiet and peaceful as we had hoped––apart from the occasional sounds that are basically ubiquitous and unavoidable in the city (a distant echo from the scrap metal truck; someone's dog barking), we often heard nothing more than the sound of the breeze. The furnishings are appreciably minimal without feeling bare; we stayed for nearly a week and never felt that anything was missing.
