The apt was larger than we thought it would be. It was stylish and we loved being able to open the large windows to let air into the space. The headspace is lacking in the left where the bed is located but we knew that upfront from prior reviews. The bus stops right outside the apt - the metro is a 10 minute walk. Grocery stores are a little hike but Sharon gave us several good tips on where they were along with recommendations for restaurants. She was a wonderful host and we really enjoyed meeting her
