This apt is very clean and comfortable. I was not crazy about the "shared outside space"...smells like dog poop and no place to sit. The apt is very well stocked and communication with the owner was easy although I never saw her in 8 days (that's not a problem, though). If you have a lot of luggage, note that you must go thru a gate and 3 doors and down 1 1/2 flights of stairs.
