First, let me tell you that Salim is a very responsive host. He addressed my immediate issue (tripping the electrical fuse) which was my fault entirely. Then while fixing it I messed up the hot water heater and he fixed it right away!! He was very quick to respond and even sent someone to help out. And the location of the apartment is perfect. You just can't beat it. Now, the thing you need to know about the apartment is that it sits adjacent to a construction site. The construction site includes a crane and jackhammers and an excavator. So the noise begins EXACTLY at 8am and ends at 6pm - they do have a lunch break in there. If you're out and about all day you may never even notice. But if you are in the apartment the noise is even too much to have a phone call. Salim was kind enough to refund me most of my money and could understand why I needed to leave. I felt obligated to write a review since most of us depend on reviews to make our decisions. When the construction is over and whatever they are building is complete, the apartment is going to fantastic without noise pollution.
