Edith and Mark were wonderful hosts! If you want to see the major tourist spots, you can't get a better location! We walked everywhere. It also not far from local trendy spots in the city (about a $7 Uber ride). The unit was impeccably clean and contemporary in design, stocked with Nespresso coffee and breakfast stuff. I would consider living in an apartment like this back home. Occasionally we could hear noise from upstairs, but it was only in the morning when we were already up and it didn't bother us at all. We both have allergies and were concerned about a basement unit, but it was not musty or damp at all. All windows are fully above ground and the place was quite bright. We'd highly recommend it!!
