During our visit from the US, this was our 2nd apartment. We were pleased that it was only a 10 minute walk to the beach with a great boardwalk, water sports and many eating places. It was convenient to the metro and very close to the park. The apartment was very clean and comfortable for two people. The host was timely and very friendly. The stairs to the unit were a bit more than we expected but we got a bit more used to them over time.
