The apartment is shared, but the bedroom is completely yours, of course and you could even lock it if desired. I did not use much of the apartment, except the bathroom, as I arrived in the evening and left in the morning already. For my purposes it was perfect: Well situated and very affordable. I visited the centre briefly and had no problem of coming back by public transport. Also, the next morning, going to the airport was very easy as the bus stop (linea A) is 5 min away. I have nothing to complain about. But if you are looking for something to stay for two people and several days, you should consider that the bedroom is quite small, the bed occupies almost all the space...
