It is very central and near a lot of great places. The front door is on a very busy intersection, though, so it is very noisy when you enter. Once in, the apartment is quiet and faces the back. Sometimes it smells a bit from the restaurants downstairs. And make sure you are ready to walk up a lot of stairs. The apartment is clean and has a great layout for a few people to stay. The owners are very organized for visitors. It was a breeze to get in and all of that.
