the apartment is well equipped and comfortable. great linens and towels and it's very quiet. the kitchen has everything you need for cooking small meals and there's also a washing machine (but there's no dryer - clothes dry very fast though, there's a line outside the window and also a demountable rack). we had a small issue with the bedroom heater, that did not work. but it was easy to get in touch with Elizabeth and she told us how to get around the problem. the area may seem a little insecure at a first glance, but there's nothing to it, streets are very busy at night and very well lit. apart from some small improvements (heater, bed that could be a little more comfortable) the apartment is very nice and I would stay there again.
