Carlos apartment is very close to the subway and in a few minutes you are in the city.
Carlos is a perfect host who made us feel like at home. It is a very multicultural area which we loved. Groceries are nearby. Some restaurants as well.
The room is right at the street but not as noisy as you might think. We were able to sleep very good.
If you want to be close to downtown but not right in it it is the perfect location.
