The apt was great, lots of space and modernly accented. The kitchen was fully stocked with pots, pans, etc. (no oven though, just a stovetop). It would be a great place to cook your own food during a stay, there are a few stores just a couple blocks away. The area is a great little neighborhood to go out in, plenty of restaurants to choose from - I would suggest The Russian House, about a 10 min walk.
