Agnes was a welcoming host and willing to accomodate on the check-in time. I would not call the property a luxury apartment though-it is a middle-size room with a nice bathroom (which has to be shared though - this was not mentioned in the apartment description). It is located very conveniently close to the metro. One other reviewer also mentioned the strong smell of cigarettes. Being a non-smoker, I could also feel it and it did bother me.
