This place is exactly as pictured and described. We travelled here with our two small children, ages 2 and 4, and had a nice stay. Coming from NY, the lack of heat didn't bother us at all. The elevator broke once while we were there, but someone came to fix it that same day. The location was great -- close to the park, many delicious restaurants. Communication with the host was quick and easy. All in all we had a great time and this apartment was a great home base to have.
