This is a great apartment which we shared with 5 people, and it didn't feel crowded because of the bright and large living room. There was some food in the fridge and a coffee machine with coffee, so we had everything we needed after arriving. Seth & Mike responded quickly to emails and everything with regard to handing over of the keys went were smoothly. The metro station is indeed very close to the house (roughly 2 minutes walk). The street in which the house is located is very nice, however, the surrounding neighborhood is a bit run-down. That being sad, it wasn't detrimental to our stay and we had no negative experience with neighbors or anyone in the area. Thanks, Seth & Mike for letting us stay in the apartment!
