We feel so lucky to have stayed in this wonderful apartment. The location is perfect. We purchased a weekly metro pass but really didn't need it since everything is within walking distance; restaurants, museums, grocery store, shops and the ferry docks. The apartment was very clean, had ample linens, a comfortable bed and a relaxing family room with a lovely view of the courtyard from the back of the apartment. We never heard a sound from the neighbors in the building. The kitchen is large by European standards and has a full sized refrigerator. We were there during a heat wave and there is no air conditioning in the apartment. However with the windows open there is a nice cross breeze that kept the spaces cool. Since it is located on a street that is a regular part of many walking tours through old town it can get noisy during the day but the noise dies down and is very quiet at night. If you want to sleep in be sure to close the windows at night or bring ear plugs as the garbage collectors are loud in the morning (Monday seemed to be the loudest). This apartment was perfect for our vacation and we highly recommend it.
