The apartment is steps from the metro making it super convenient to the whole city. The neighborhood is definitely in the process of “gentrification”. When the building next door is finished, it will be quite the plaza. Be warned that it is photographed to seem much larger than it actually is. We made it work, but I wouldn’t put more than 8 people in it. The living room and kitchen are tiny, and it isn’t readily apparent from the photos that they photograph the same room twice - once with a pool table and once with the pool table converted into a dining table. The host was great and check in was simple. Great place for a medium size crowd or family of 5 or 6.
