This is a very nice little apartment. The photos make it look larger than it is, of course (the magic of real estate photography). Having an elevator makes this an excellent find for people like me who hate to carry luggage up more than one flight of stairs. And it's always wonderful to be able to step outside onto a balcony or terrace.
The neighborhood is loud and vibrant late into the night but this apt is quiet, an essential plus. Despite the extensive tagging everywhere along the streets, walking back to the apartment alone at 11 pm felt perfectly safe. There's also fun creative bits everywhere.
Loads of good eating and neighborhood action the minute you step out the door - walking distance to everywhere! If you plan on eating between 8:30 - 10 pm, anywhere, you'll need a reservation or great luck. Pack a beverage and a few edibles and spend the early evening at the park up by the Temple of Debod on a dry evening and enjoy the shared mellow scene; if you're lucky a talented musician will be busking for your added pleasure.
