The location of this apartment couldn't be better. The metro was just steps from the apartment, as were shops, markets and restaurants. On weekends the busy street was closed to motorized vehicles, making it a pedestrian mall that extended quite a ways in both directions. Other advantages were windows that blocked outside noises when closed, a comfortable bed, a good heating system, decent wifi, comfortable bathroom. The biggest problem was a broken-down couch that was not at all comfortable. The walls of this older building are thin, so if you're unlucky and have noisy neighbors, you'll need earplugs. We spent a month in this apartment with mostly good days, but a couple of very noisy ones when apartments in the building were rented to young partiers.
