The location is perfect. You can walk to the metro, grocery, restaurants and all the sites. It’s a quiet neighborhood and we felt really safe.
However, the house left a lot to be desired. To be honest I was disappointed. The pictures showed an updated and clean home where we could come back after sightseeing and relax. While I understand it is an old, historic home we found it unkempt and in need of some repairs. It was also very cluttered and everything looked worn out. The bones of this house are amazing and the potential is off-the-charts, but even as a “rental” it needs some attention. It served our purpose and we still had a great trip, but I was expecting more.
