The apartment is nice, balcony was wonderful. The building is located in a courtyard behind a gate with a 24-hour guard, so we felt fairly safe despite the fact we arrived from the US the day after the riots began. The apartment is in a great area with lots of nightlife and restaurants, but unfortunately the current state of events dampened that a bit. Overall though the apartment was a great place to stay, safe, in the center of town, easy to walk around, and a great value for the price.
