All the essentials were provided for in our stay, plus more. The host obviously put some thought into stocking the kitchen. It had dishes, cutlery, cookware and even a spatula and a wisk! The apartment had tasteful decor. The shower had great hot water that didn't go cold like many other multi unit places. Netflix on the TV was a huge plus, (also there were 2 TVs!!). The building was safe and required a series of codes to enter, ensuring only guests had full access (a random person can't just walk in; this is a very important safety feature given the neighborhood).
