From a location perspective, this apartment was excellent. It did however lack some of the amenities one would expect at this price range such as a microwave and laundry detergent. There were also some defects such as windows which could not lock, the couch which had a bad back and a boiler that acted up. In all fairness to the owner, they gave me instructions on how to fix the boiler so it was not a major inconvenience. In addition, you are on the second floor so the broken windows do not pose a security threat and I didn't come to sit on a couch. Nevertheless, one expects an apartment to work perfectly without any hassle.
