Alex's place is a nice little studio apartment that has everything you need. A good launch pad for seeing the city by public transport with the bus D6 running to the city centre and the bus B2 going to the nearest subway. Literally minutes away from the H Street corridor where you will find all the bars and shops you could want. There is a free tram running down H Street to Union Station and is very frequent. Safe neighbourhood, friendly people and quiet in the evenings.
I had a great time in the apartment, would highly recommend.
