The apartment was located less than a 2 minute walk to a bus stop, which made using public transportation very easy. We felt safe in the area, even when walking late at night. There is a huge, beautiful park steps away from the apartment that our kids loved running around in as well. The apartment has quite a few steep stairs in it, so maybe wouldn't be a good choice for somebody with mobility issues. We didn't mind it though. Both of the couches in the living room turn into beds, which was great for snuggling with our kids at night and watching movies before bedtime. The kitchen was pretty well equipped (pots, pans, electric kettle, microwave, toaster, and plenty of plates, bowls, and cups) and the washer/dryer worked well! I would definitely recommend this apartment!
