The pros of this place include the proximity to bus routes to get downtown, walking distance to restaurants near the shore, and room for 6 people. The water was always hot, and the dishes in the kitchen were clean. On the other hand, it was quite noisy at night, the neighbours were noisy, and the entry up the common stairway was smelly and dark. The apartment has some nice touches in terms of decorating, but the underlying sense of things running down or beginning to fall apart made it a less pleasant place to stay.
