Pictures accurately describe the unit. Shared entrance space and the unit is private as described. The views from the balcony are quite nice as we were lucky with beautiful weather and could see the city quite well. There is not a kitchen but there were a nice fridge, microwave and toaster oven. Only down side was only having the bathroom sink for rinsing out a dish or filling up the coffee maker. With that being said, knowing this very small limitation, I would definitely recommend this place. Thumbs up!
