this is a beautiful apt in a great area.two things to note on the downside: its pretty loud bc walls btwn units are thin and windows are not double pane. both were tolerable for me. the host, however, I'd very unpleasant to deal with. any questions outside of my arrival and departure timing were treated as a nuisance. for instance,when I inquired about extra towels to step on when I get out of shower(rather than step on cold tiles), the response see was,"do you really need any?" when I asked about a teapot, she first ignored my question entirely, and, when prompted again, replied, "the apartment is fully equipped with pots and pans". finally, she required me to leave the key in a lockbox that neither me nor the doorman managed to figure out how to operate, and then proceeded to tell me she I an not allowed to leave the key with the doorman
