The apartment is very secure, behind a gate and a couple locked doors, but very centrally located. It had AC, and also, big beautiful windows with a balcony to let in the morning air. We didn't have need to use the kitchen much but it had a range (though no pots and pans) and an electric tea pot and a coffee maker as well as a microwave. We tended to leave in the morning to go explore and not come back until bed time, and it was a very comfy spot to come home to. It's in a well trafficked part of the city, but it was super quiet. Also, we got visited by Sea Gulls on our first and last mornings, which was lovely!
