Although our host was held up in traffic, he was very kind and thoughtful upon his arrival. The apartment is in a nice, safe location. The Metro is a few steps away and there are shops and bakeries in walking distance. The neighborhood is adult yet fun and funky. The apartment was exactly as advertised and the balcony was absolutely perfect. It was perfect to stay in a more quiet part of town and enjoy the balcony after exploring the city. Highly recommended!
