Sadly I cannot recommend this place. It was in an extremely loud place with thin windows and nothing to shield from the noose. The window latch didn't function correctly and kept shaking and blowing open all night. We were woken up continously and didn't sleep at all the final night. The shower drain was backed up above our ankles. I don't know that I can blame our host for this, but the elevator was broken for our stay and the apartment is 6 flights up. The apartment was not without charm or conveinance, but all the positives were overshadowed by the negatives.
