The apartment was just as photographed - a nice size, modern, clean, and well appointed. The windows let in loads of light and a nice breeze. Our host communicated well with us during the booking, in preparation for the trip, and during the trip. I never felt nervous, they were always quick to respond and very helpful. The neighborhood was very cool with loads of coffee shops, good restaurants, a grocery store right across the street, the river walkway just across the street, and a tram stop right on the street. It was easy to get to this apartment by transit from the airport. Since we had the windows open, it was a bit noisy in the evening, but this didn't bother our sleeping kids, so it couldn't have been too noisy. The windows are good and if they were closed, it was not noisy at all. The building itself is really nice, quiet, has a small play area and sandbox out front and comes with an easy to use elevator. It was great! I couldn't have asked for a better place.
