The apartment was everything that it was advertised to be. There were restaurants, stores, coffee shops and everything you need within a short walk. In minutes you are in the city center whether you take the metro or a taxi. Taxis are very easy to get with the app. Alexandre and Anh-Thu could not be more accommodating and kind. I highly recommend this apartment for all of the comfort and conveniences it gave us during our stay. You will not be disappointed. The only suggestion I would have for the traveler is rent the apartment the night before you arrive or make arrangements if the apartment was not rented before your stay to be able to occupy and drop off luggage as soon as you get there. We landed at 8:30, got to apartment at 9:30 and the previous occupant was not out until 11:00. It then had to be cleaned. Alexandre allowed us to drop our luggage off at 11:30 but because of timing, we had to drag luggage around the street for 2 hours and could not get into apartment until 4:00.
