This is such a cute little apartment and it looked just like it does in the photos. Although it is a pretty good walk to many of the sites the metro is right down the street and easy to navigate. There is a grocery store down the street if you want to stock the fridge and there is also a pizza place and restaurant very close. There is also a great path along the water close by perfect for running/cycling or just taking a walk. There are many people in the area so I always felt safe. The wifi in the apartment works great as well.
