Karl was very communicative and made the whole process very easy. The apartment was as pictured-- clean and cozy. The neighborhood was lovely and walkable and a good homebase for sightseeing. Parking really wasn't an issue; even though there is no parking directly in front, there are many free spots on the street running parallel behind the apartment. The only downsides: the beds weren't super comfortable (thin foam mattresses) and the upstairs neighbors were loud enough to wake us up at night once or twice.
