The apartment was as advertised. We found the bed comfortable but on the soft side if you like a hard bed. We did not use AC or heat. It was very quiet even with the windows open which was great. The door man let us in and does not speak English, but we managed ok and he was friendly. I asked Ascension for a big pot and she was kind enough to leave an extra pot for me. Made hubby very happy because I was able to make him chilli he wanted. The stove is induction so buying a pot would have been very expensive. Don't miss the nearby market and fresh artisinal bread and cheese across the street.
